+I appreciate the detailed charter and context, but I need to pause here and be direct about what I'm observing.
+
+---
+
+## Issue: Empty Task Message
+
+The **Current Message** section shows:
+```
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+There is **no opportunity, market, or business problem** specified for me to analyze. The template asks me to produce "a research-grade market analysis document for the opportunity in the task message," but no opportunity has been provided.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+To deliver the market analysis in the structure you've outlined, please provide:
+
+1. **The specific market opportunity or niche** (e.g., "AI-powered legal document automation," "indie author web storefronts," "sustainable packaging for e-commerce," etc.)
+
+2. **Context on why this is being considered** (e.g., internal capability gap? Market signal? Operator request?)
+
+3. **Any initial hypotheses or constraints** (e.g., "must integrate with existing Tenant X," "budget ceiling of $Y," "must reach profitability in Z months")
+
+---
+
+## My Role Clarification
+
+I note that the charter identifies a **market_intelligence** function as part of Crimson Leaf's authorized domains, but I'm currently operating as **Orion, Director of Research**. I have the analytical authority to produce this research-grade analysis once the opportunity is specified—I'm not delegating to an external tool; I'm performing the market intelligence function inline.
+
+**Please resubmit with the opportunity clearly stated, and I will deliver the full 8-section market analysis with real-URL citations and a clear PROCEED/INVESTIGATE/PASS recommendation.**
