+# ERROR: TASK INCOMPLETE
+
+**Status:** Cannot proceed with business plan generation.
+
+**Reason:** The operator message is empty. The `*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***` section contains:
+```
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+**Required to proceed:**
+1. **Opportunity Name** – What business unit are we incubating?
+2. **Market Gap Description** – What problem does it solve?
+3. **Target Customer** – Who is the primary user/buyer?
+4. **Initial Strategic Hypothesis** – Why does Crimson Leaf believe this exists as a viable venture?
+
+**Expected input format:**
+```
+Operator: [Name]
+Message: 
+[Opportunity Name]
+[1-2 sentence problem statement]
+[Target customer profile]
+[Strategic hypothesis or trigger for research]
+```
+
+---
+
+### Next Steps
+
+**Option A (Recommended):** Provide a complete task message with the opportunity details. I will then:
+- Synthesize market analysis from Gitea
+- Populate business model, GTM, and risk frameworks with cited data
+- Deliver a complete, investor-grade business plan suitable for David's funding decision
+
+**Option B:** If this is a test of my protocol adherence, please confirm. I will not fabricate market data or invent URLs to meet citation minimums.
+
+---
+
+**Awaiting operator input.**
