+# DIRECTOR OF RESEARCH — ORION
+
+I need to pause and flag a critical structural issue.
+
+---
+
+## The Problem
+
+You've asked me to produce a **full, investor-grade business plan** for an opportunity, but **no opportunity details were provided in the task message**.
+
+Your message contains:
+
+✓ The Crimson Leaf charter (governance framework)
+✓ Project context (Incubation mandate)
+✓ Citation rules and format requirements
+✓ **Three placeholder data sections that are empty:**
+  - `{biz_data_1}` – Business Model Examples
+  - `{biz_data_2}` – Go-to-Market Channel Research
+  - `{biz_data_3}` – Risk and Failure Research
+
+✗ **No specific business opportunity to analyze**
+✗ **No market, problem statement, or target customer**
+✗ **No financial data or competitive landscape**
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+To produce an investor-grade business plan that meets the standards outlined, please provide:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Name** (e.g., "AI-Powered Content Generation for Indie Authors")
+2. **The Problem Statement** (what gap exists, why now, what customers need)
+3. **Target Customer Profile** (who buys, willingness to pay, pain point severity)
+4. **The Three Research Data Sets** (populated `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}`)
+5. **Any existing market analysis or Gitea commits** related to this opportunity
+
+---
+
+## My Recommendation
+
+**Before I write:** This request should follow the **Genesis Protocol** outlined in the charter:
+
+1. **Need Assessment** – Does this require a new Tenant, or can an existing capability handle it?
+2. **Blueprint Phase** – Draft a charter and CEO profile *before* commissioning a full business plan.
+3. **Then research** – Commission the business plan once the architectural decision is made.
+
+If you're testing whether I can produce investor-grade plans under these constraints, I can—but I need the raw material.
+
+**Send the opportunity details, and I'll deliver a plan that meets the 95%+ adjudication threshold.**
+
+—**Orion**
