+# HALT — CRITICAL CONTEXT MISSING
+
+I cannot produce an investor-grade business plan without the essential input data.
+
+## What I Need
+
+The system prompt references three critical research databases that should have been populated in the **CURRENT MESSAGE**:
+
+1. **{biz_data_1}** — Business Model Examples
+2. **{biz_data_2}** — Go-to-Market Channel Research  
+3. **{biz_data_3}** — Risk and Failure Research
+
+**These placeholders are empty.** The message contains:
+- ✅ A charter and governance framework (Crimson Leaf's constitution)
+- ✅ Project context (Incubation mandate)
+- ✅ A role assignment (Orion, Director of Research)
+- ✅ Format specifications
+- ❌ **NO market opportunity to analyze**
+- ❌ **NO business model research data**
+- ❌ **NO GTM benchmarks or case studies**
+- ❌ **NO competitive or failure analysis**
+
+## What Should Happen Next
+
+**Option 1: Provide the Opportunity**
+Reply with:
+- The specific business opportunity you want planned (e.g., "Indie author web storefronts," "AI-powered manuscript formatting service," etc.)
+- Market research data (TAM, growth trends, customer interviews, competitive landscape)
+- Pricing benchmarks and unit economics from comparable businesses
+- GTM case studies or channel performance data
+- Failure case studies relevant to this niche
+
+**Option 2: Specify the Research Task**
+If this is a research-first workflow, ask me to:
+- Identify an opportunity from Crimson Leaf's charter gaps
+- Conduct preliminary market analysis on that opportunity
+- Return a research summary for your review before building the business plan
+
+**Option 3: Clarify the Incubation Scope**
+The charter mentions:
+- **Indie author web presence services** (Ink & Anchor Digital)
+- **Manuscript packaging and print-ready PDFs** (implied but uncharterd)
+- **E-commerce storefronts for authors**
+
+Should I build a business plan for one of these pre-identified opportunities?
+
+---
+
+**Please provide either the market research data or the specific opportunity, and I will deliver the full investor-grade business plan in the format specified.**
