+# ⚠️ REQUEST CANNOT BE FULFILLED
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+You've submitted a **business plan request** to Orion (Director of Research), but **no operator message or opportunity details were provided**.
+
+The template requires:
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: [name]
+Message: [THE SPECIFIC OPPORTUNITY TO ANALYZE]
+```
+
+Your submission contains:
+
+```
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+Both fields are **empty**.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need
+
+To produce an investor-grade business plan, you must supply:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name** – What business/venture are we analyzing?
+2. **Problem Statement** – What market gap or customer pain point exists?
+3. **Core Thesis** – Why should Crimson Leaf pursue this *now*?
+4. **Customer Profile** – Who is the target market?
+5. **Initial Market Research** (optional but helpful) – Any data, URLs, or competitive landscape already vetted?
+
+---
+
+## Example Format
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: David
+Message: 
+We've identified an opportunity in AI-powered manuscript formatting for indie authors. 
+The problem: self-publishers waste 40+ hours on KDP/IngramSpark compliance. 
+The market: 2M+ indie authors publishing annually, willing to pay $50-200 per title for print-ready PDFs.
+Should we incubate a dedicated Tenant to own this?
+```
+
+---
+
+## Next Step
+
+**Please resubmit with:**
+- A clear, specific opportunity description
+- The operator's name
+- Any existing market research or URLs
+
+Once provided, I (Orion) will deliver a **complete, cited, investor-grade business plan** following the format above.
