+# TASK BLOCKED: Missing Critical Input
+
+I cannot produce the requested business plan because the **task message is empty**.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+You've provided:
+- ✅ Context (Charter, RAG database, project framing)
+- ✅ Format template (detailed structure for business plan output)
+- ✅ Citation rules and quality standards
+- ❌ **THE ACTUAL OPPORTUNITY** (blank message field)
+
+---
+
+## What Should Be In Your Message
+
+Please provide:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name** – What business are we incubating?
+2. **Problem Statement** – What gap exists? Who suffers?
+3. **Target Customer** – Who is the user/buyer? What is their pain?
+4. **Proposed Solution** – How does Crimson Leaf address this?
+5. **Strategic Context** – Why now? Why does this align with CL's mandate?
+
+**Example format:**
+```
+Opportunity: AI-Powered Manuscript Formatting Service
+Problem: Self-published authors waste 40+ hours on print-ready PDF 
+         compliance (KDP, IngramSpark bleed margins, optical balance)
+Customer: Indie authors ($15-50K annual revenue range)
+Solution: Agentic workflow to convert Word/Markdown → print-ready PDFs
+         with platform-specific metadata and aesthetic QA
+Market Signal: 2.3M indie authors published last year; 78% report 
+              formatting as top pain point
+```
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Resubmit with the opportunity details filled in**, and I (Orion) will:
+- ✅ Produce investor-grade business plan (complete with assumptions, citations, 10+ sources)
+- ✅ Build revenue projections (Month 1-12 with explicit assumptions)
+- ✅ Design 90-day GTM roadmap
+- ✅ Flag top 5 risks with mitigation
+- ✅ Deliver FUND / PILOT / DO NOT FUND recommendation
+
+**Standing by for task message.**
