+# MARKET ANALYSIS REQUEST ERROR
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+I am positioned as **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, but I have received **no task message** and **no market research data** to analyze.
+
+The template you've provided includes five research passes:
+- PASS 1: Market Size and TAM
+- PASS 2: Competitive Landscape and Pricing
+- PASS 3: News and Recent Developments
+- PASS 4: Community Voice and Buyer Pain Points
+- PASS 5: Revenue and Monetization Models
+
+All five are **empty placeholders** (`{market_data_1}`, `{market_data_2}`, etc.).
+
+---
+
+## What I Need
+
+To produce a research-grade market analysis document, please provide:
+
+1. **The opportunity name/niche** you want analyzed
+2. **The five research passes filled with actual data**, including real URLs and citations
+3. **Any specific constraints** on scope, timeline, or business model
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Option A: Provide the research data**
+Populate the five research passes with web sources, competitive intelligence, community forums, pricing data, and news items. I will synthesize into a structured market analysis with 8+ real citations.
+
+**Option B: Escalate to Market Intelligence intake**
+If no market research has been conducted yet, this request should be routed to Crimson Leaf's **Chief Intelligence Officer** (per charter) or the **Intake Coordinator** to determine whether:
+- A new market intelligence project should be chartered
+- An existing Tenant can extend into this analysis
+- The need should be delegated to a deterministic research tool
+
+---
+
+**Awaiting input.** Please provide the opportunity name and research data, or clarify the intended escalation path.
