+# HALT – Missing Critical Input
+
+**Orion here.** I cannot produce the business plan you've requested because the **operator message is empty**.
+
+The system prompt instructs me to:
+> Produce a full, investor-grade business plan for the opportunity in the task message.
+
+But there is **no opportunity described in the current message**. The sections marked:
+- `{biz_data_1}` (Business Model Examples) – **EMPTY**
+- `{biz_data_2}` (GTM Channel Research) – **EMPTY**
+- `{biz_data_3}` (Risk and Failure Research) – **EMPTY**
+
+And critically: **no opportunity name, market segment, or business concept has been specified**.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide **ONE** of the following:
+
+### Option A: Full Task Input
+Resubmit with:
+1. **Opportunity name and description** (e.g., "AI-powered indie author web storefront design")
+2. **Target market segment** (e.g., "self-published fiction authors, 5K-50K annual revenue")
+3. **Research data** filling the three sections above (biz_data_1, biz_data_2, biz_data_3)
+
+### Option B: Reference Existing Gitea Analysis
+If market research has already been committed to Crimson Leaf's repository, provide:
+- The **Gitea path** to the market analysis document
+- The **opportunity name** I should reference
+
+### Option C: Minimal Specification
+If you want me to begin with a skeleton and you'll provide research incrementally:
+- **Opportunity name** (required)
+- **Primary customer segment** (required)
+- **Core value proposition** (required)
+
+---
+
+## Current State
+
+I'm standing by as **Orion, Director of Research**. I have the charter, the format template, and the citation discipline locked. I'm waiting for the **fuel**: the market opportunity itself.
+
+**What venture should I analyze?**
