+# ⚠️ CRITICAL ERROR: INCOMPLETE REQUEST
+
+Orion cannot proceed with the business plan. **The operator message is empty** — there is no opportunity description, market data, or GTM research provided.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+To generate an investor-grade business plan, you must supply:
+
+1. **Opportunity Description** — What business or market niche should this plan cover? (e.g., "AI-powered content platform for indie authors," "B2B SaaS for supply chain logistics," etc.)
+
+2. **Market Analysis Data** (`{biz_data_1}`) — TAM, growth drivers, customer pain points, competitive landscape
+
+3. **GTM Channel Research** (`{biz_data_2}`) — Proven acquisition channels, pricing benchmarks, conversion rates, CAC data
+
+4. **Risk & Failure Research** (`{biz_data_3}`) — Common failure modes in this niche, regulatory barriers, churn patterns
+
+---
+
+## How to Proceed
+
+**Resubmit with:**
+- A clear problem statement and target market
+- Market sizing data (TAM/SAM/SOM with sources)
+- 3-5 competitive references or pricing examples
+- At least 5 research citations (URLs, reports, case studies)
+
+---
+
+## Status
+
+**BLOCKING:** Awaiting operator message with opportunity scope and research data.
+
+Once you provide these inputs, Orion will deliver a complete, cited business plan ready for David's funding decision.
