+
+**Status:** ⚠️ **UNABLE TO PROCEED**
+
+**Reason:** The operator message contains no task payload.

+
+## What I'm Waiting For
+
+To produce an investor-grade business plan per your charter, I need:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name / Description**
+   - What business idea or market gap are we evaluating?
+   - (e.g., "AI-powered indie author web storefronts," "manuscript formatting for self-publishing," etc.)
+
+2. **Market Research Data** (referenced as placeholders above)
+   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
+   - `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research
+   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research
+
+3. **Contextual Parameters** (if any)
+   - Target customer segment refinement
+   - Initial budget ceiling (if constrained)
+   - Strategic alignment notes
+
+---
+
+## What I Will Deliver Once Data Arrives
+
+A **complete, investor-grade business plan** including:
+
+✅ Executive Summary (250 words)  
+✅ Problem/Solution with cited pain points  
+✅ Market Analysis (TAM, growth rate, drivers — all sourced)  
+✅ Specific Unit Economics (revenue/customer, CAC, margin)  
+✅ 12-Month Revenue Projections (every assumption stated)  
+✅ Competitive Landscape with AI defensibility thesis  
+✅ 90-Day Go-to-Market Roadmap (week-by-week)  
+✅ Operations Plan (CL agent roles, approval gates, automation levels)  
+✅ Risk Register (5 risks, severity, mitigation)  
+✅ 90-Day Decision Gate (specific thresholds)  
+✅ Final Recommendation: **FUND** / **PILOT FIRST** / **DO NOT FUND**  
+✅ Minimum 10 cited sources (URLs with domains)  
+
+---
+
+## Next Step
+
+**Please provide:**
+
+1. The opportunity / business idea you want analyzed
+2. Any market research, competitive data, or GTM insights already gathered
+3. Target customer profile (optional but helpful)
+
+Once received, I will produce the full business plan within this session.
