+# PAUSE — CRITICAL INPUT MISSING
+
+Orion here. I cannot produce a business plan without the essential inputs.
+
+**The task message is empty.** The operator has not specified:
+
+1. **What opportunity?** — No company concept, market niche, or problem domain
+2. **What research data?** — The placeholders `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}` contain no actual market analysis, GTM channels, or failure research
+3. **What is David evaluating?** — No specific business thesis to cost, timeline, or validate
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide:
+
+**A.** The **opportunity name and description** (2-3 sentences)
+   - Example: "AI-powered cover design for indie authors" or "Automated SEO audit SaaS for B2B agencies"
+
+**B.** The **market analysis data** (or a link to the Gitea commit)
+   - TAM estimate
+   - Growth rate
+   - Key customer segments
+   - Current solutions and their gaps
+
+**C.** The **GTM channel research** (what channels actually work in this space?)
+   - Affiliate programs, communities, platforms where customers gather
+   - Content distribution costs
+   - Typical CAC and payback periods
+
+**D.** The **failure research** (what kills businesses like this?)
+   - Common execution failures
+   - Market saturation issues
+   - Unit economics breakdowns
+
+---
+
+## Alternative: Lightweight Prompt
+
+If you want me to **reverse-engineer** this from context, provide:
+
+> "I want to launch a [business type] serving [customer segment] in the [niche]. The market evidence is [specific URL or RAG reference]. Budget is [X]. Timeline is [Y]."
+
+Then I'll scaffold the plan and flag uncertainties.
+
+**Standing by for task clarification.**
