+# ⚠️ UNABLE TO PROCEED – MISSING CRITICAL INPUT
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, and I have received a request to produce a **full, investor-grade business plan** for an opportunity in the task message.
+
+**However, the task message is empty.**
+
+The structure you've provided includes:
+
+- ✅ Charter and governance framework
+- ✅ RAG database context (portfolio facts, Tenant precedents)
+- ✅ Template and format requirements
+- ✅ Citation rules and quality thresholds
+
+But it is **missing the fundamental input**:
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: 
+Message: [BLANK]
+```
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide **one of the following**:
+
+### Option A: Opportunity Brief
+A narrative description of the business opportunity you want analyzed. Example:
+- *"AI-powered email marketing platform for indie e-commerce"*
+- *"Manuscript formatting service for self-published authors"*
+- *"SEO content factory for B2B SaaS"*
+
+### Option B: Market Segment + Problem Statement
+- **Target market:** [specific niche]
+- **Problem:** [what pain point exists]
+- **Proposed solution:** [how Crimson Leaf would solve it]
+
+### Option C: Reference to Gitea Docs
+If the opportunity has already been documented in Crimson Leaf's Gitea repository, provide:
+- The **Tenant proposal filename** or **project code**
+- The **market analysis URL** or reference
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Once you provide the **opportunity details**, I will deliver:
+
+1. **Executive Summary** (250 words, grounded in market data)
+2. **Problem/Solution** analysis with community pain points
+3. **Market size, growth, and TAM** with cited sources
+4. **Business model** with real pricing benchmarks
+5. **12-month revenue projections** with explicit assumptions
+6. **Competitive analysis** referencing actual competitors
+7. **90-day GTM plan** with specific deliverables
+8. **Operations plan** with CL agent roles
+9. **Risk register** with mitigation strategies
+10. **Final recommendation** (FUND / PILOT / DECLINE) with rationale
+
+**All figures will be cited. No invented URLs. Minimum 10 sources.**
+
+---
+
+**Please provide the opportunity description and I will begin immediately.**
