+# TASK EXCEPTION: Missing Operational Context
+
+I cannot generate the business plan because the **operator message is empty** and **no opportunity has been specified**.
+
+To proceed, I need:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Details** — What specific business unit or market niche should this business plan address?
+   - Example: "Indie author digital storefronts," "AI-powered manuscript formatting," "genre-specific book marketing," etc.
+
+2. **The Research Payload** — The template references three RAG data blocks that were not provided:
+   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
+   - `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research
+   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research
+
+3. **The Decision Maker** — Who is "David" in this context? (The template assumes a human stakeholder with funding authority.)
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please provide:**
+
+```
+OPPORTUNITY NAME: [What market does this plan address?]
+OPERATOR MESSAGE: [What specific business plan is requested?]
+RESEARCH DATA:
+  - Business model examples / competitive benchmarks
+  - GTM channel data / customer acquisition paths
+  - Risk research / failure case studies
+DECISION MAKER: [Name or role of the stakeholder reviewing this plan]
+```
+
+Once this context is supplied, I will generate a **complete, investment-grade business plan** with:
+- ✓ 10+ cited sources (no invented URLs)
+- ✓ Explicit financial assumptions throughout
+- ✓ Month-by-month projections through 12 months
+- ✓ Specific 90-day decision gates
+- ✓ Clear FUND / PILOT / DO NOT FUND recommendation
+
+**Awaiting operator clarification.**
