+# ⚠️ TASK INCOMPLETE — MISSING CRITICAL INPUT
+
+Orion here. I've reviewed the project charter and context, but **the operator message is empty**. 
+
+I cannot produce a business plan without:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Name** — What venture are we evaluating?
+2. **The Problem Statement** — What market gap or customer pain point are we addressing?
+3. **The Proposed Solution** — What business model or service is being incubated?
+4. **Preliminary Market Intelligence** — What data, customer interviews, or TAM estimates already exist?
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide the **task message** with at least:
+
+- **Opportunity Title** (e.g., "AI-Powered Manuscript Formatting for Self-Published Authors")
+- **Target Customer** (e.g., "indie authors earning $10k–$100k annually")
+- **The Gap** (e.g., "existing formatting tools fail on complex layouts; current services cost $500–$2k per title")
+- **Proposed Solution** (e.g., "agentic Tenant that generates print-ready PDFs in 48 hours for $150")
+- **Any existing research** (TAM estimates, competitor URLs, customer feedback, etc.)
+
+---
+
+## Governance Note
+
+Once you provide the opportunity brief, I will:
+
+1. **Validate against Crimson Leaf Charter** — ensuring this justifies a new Tenant (not an extension of existing capability or a deterministic tool)
+2. **Produce a full investor-grade business plan** with:
+   - Explicit financial assumptions (no invented data)
+   - Minimum 10 cited sources per the citation rules
+   - 90-day decision gates tied to measurable metrics
+   - Clear recommendation: **FUND / PILOT FIRST / DO NOT FUND**
+
+3. **Package for David's review** — ready for capital allocation decision
+
+**Send the opportunity brief, and I'll begin the analysis immediately.**
