+# ⚠️ TASK INCOMPLETE — MISSING OPERATOR MESSAGE
+
+---
+
+## Status
+
+I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, and I am ready to produce a **full, investor-grade business plan** for evaluation by David (Founding CEO/Capital Guardian).
+
+However, the **operator message is empty**. 
+
+The task header indicates:
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+I require the following to proceed:
+
+### What I Need
+
+1. **Opportunity Name & Description**
+   - What business or niche is being proposed for incubation?
+   - Example: "Indie Author Web Storefronts," "AI-Powered Manuscript Formatting," "Genre-Specific Book Marketing"
+
+2. **Market Context**
+   - Who is the target customer?
+   - What problem does this solve?
+   - Why now?
+
+3. **Research Data**
+   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business model examples (currently unfilled)
+   - `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-market channel research (currently unfilled)
+   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and failure research (currently unfilled)
+
+4. **Strategic Context**
+   - Is this a net-new Tenant or an extension of an existing unit?
+   - What makes this distinct from existing Crimson Leaf portfolio companies?
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please provide:**
+
+- The specific **opportunity you want analyzed**
+- Any **market research, competitive data, or GTM channels** you've already gathered
+- **Target customer segment** and **initial assumptions** about market size or revenue potential
+
+Once received, I will produce a complete, cited, assumption-transparent business plan suitable for David's capital allocation decision.
