+# TASK BLOCKED: Missing Critical Input
+
+I am Orion, Director of Research at Crimson Leaf Holdings. I cannot proceed with business plan generation because the **task message is empty**.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+The operator's message field contains no opportunity details. To produce an investor-grade business plan, I require:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name** – What business or niche are we incubating?
+2. **Problem Statement** – What market gap or customer pain point does it address?
+3. **Target Customer Profile** – Who is the end buyer or internal stakeholder?
+4. **Initial Thesis** – Why should Crimson Leaf pursue this vs. alternatives?
+
+---
+
+## What I Can Deliver Once You Provide It
+
+Once the opportunity brief is submitted, I will produce:
+
+✓ **Executive Summary** (250 words) – Vision, timing, investment, and break-even  
+✓ **Problem & Solution** – Market gap and defensible approach  
+✓ **Market Analysis** – TAM, growth drivers, cited benchmarks  
+✓ **Business Model** – Revenue streams, unit economics, pricing  
+✓ **Revenue Projections** – Months 1-12 with explicit assumptions  
+✓ **Break-Even Analysis** – Fixed costs, volume required, timeline  
+✓ **Competitive Analysis** – Why Crimson Leaf wins  
+✓ **Go-to-Market Plan** – Week-by-week execution for first 90 days  
+✓ **Operations Plan** – Agent roles, automation level, approval gates  
+✓ **Risk Register** – Top 5 risks with mitigations (H/M/L severity)  
+✓ **90-Day Decision Gate** – Minimum viable metrics and pivot triggers  
+✓ **Final Recommendation** – FUND / PILOT FIRST / DO NOT FUND with rationale  
+✓ **Sources** – Minimum 10 cited URLs with explicit assumptions
+
+---
+
+## Next Step
+
+Please provide:
+- **Opportunity name**
+- **Problem statement** (1-2 sentences)
+- **Target customer** (who needs this?)
+- **Why now?** (market timing or internal gap)
+
+Once received, I will deliver a complete, investor-grade business plan suitable for David's funding decision.
