+# HALT — Missing Critical Input
+
+I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, but the **task message is empty**.
+
+The template you've provided expects:
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: 
+Message: [OPPORTUNITY DESCRIPTION HERE]
+```
+
+To produce a research-grade market analysis, I need you to specify:
+
+1. **The opportunity name** (e.g., "AI-powered manuscript formatting for indie authors")
+2. **The market or niche** you want analyzed
+3. **Any specific constraints or context** (geography, customer segment, business model, etc.)
+
+---
+
+## What I'm Ready to Deliver
+
+Once you provide the opportunity, I will produce a **research-grade analysis** with:
+
+✓ **8+ real citations** from web sources (no invented URLs)  
+✓ **Structured sections** covering TAM, competitive landscape, buyer pain points, monetization, and revenue projections  
+✓ **Constitutional alignment** with Crimson Leaf's incubation criteria  
+✓ **Clear PROCEED / INVESTIGATE / PASS recommendation** backed by data  
+
+---
+
+## Next Step
+
+**Please reply with:**
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: [your name]
+Message: [The specific market opportunity or niche you want analyzed]
+```
+
+Then I will begin the research passes and deliver the full market analysis document.
