+# ⚠️ MISSING CONTEXT: UNABLE TO PROCEED
+
+Orion cannot generate a business plan without the critical input that should have been provided in your message.
+
+---
+
+## What I'm Missing
+
+The **task message is empty**. The operator field contains no opportunity description, market niche, or problem statement to analyze.
+
+To produce an investor-grade business plan, I need:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name & Description** — What business unit are we incubating? (e.g., "AI-powered indie author web design," "manuscript formatting for self-publishers," etc.)
+2. **Target Customer** — Who is paying? (indie authors, small publishers, agencies, etc.)
+3. **Primary Problem Solved** — What gap exists?
+4. **Initial Market Signal** — Why now? (trend, capability, internal capability gap, portfolio need?)
+
+---
+
+## What I Have
+
+✅ Charter context (Crimson Leaf governance, Tenant constitutional requirements)  
+✅ Current portfolio state (0 active Tenants, 4/8 agent slots occupied)  
+✅ RAG references (architectural patterns, roster structure, prior Tenant designs)  
+
+❌ **The actual opportunity to analyze**  
+❌ Market analysis data (`{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}` are empty placeholders)  
+❌ Competitive benchmarks and pricing data  
+❌ Go-to-market channel research
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please provide:**
+
+1. **The opportunity description** (what business unit should we incubate?)
+2. **Market data** (attach or paste the three research documents: business model examples, GTM channel research, risk/failure research)
+3. **Any preliminary constraints** (budget range, timeline, required CEO profile?)
+
+Once you provide the opportunity context and research data, I will deliver a complete, cited, decision-ready business plan in the format specified above.
+

+
+**Status:** AWAITING OPERATOR INPUT  
+**Assigned to:** Orion, Director of Research, Crimson Leaf Holdings
