+# MISSING CONTEXT: UNABLE TO PRODUCE BUSINESS PLAN
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+You have asked me to produce an **investor-grade business plan** for an incubation opportunity, but the critical input is missing:
+
+**The operator message field is empty.**
+
+The prompt structure expects:
+```
+Operator: [who is asking]
+Message: [THE SPECIFIC BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY TO PLAN]
+```
+
+Without the opportunity details, I cannot:
+- Identify the target market or customer
+- Define the problem being solved
+- Establish revenue model or unit economics
+- Project realistic growth assumptions
+- Design a go-to-market strategy
+- Assess competitive positioning
+- Create a meaningful 90-day decision gate
+
+---
+
+## What I Need
+
+Please provide:
+
+1. **Opportunity Statement** – What business are we planning to incubate? (e.g., "An AI-powered service for indie authors to generate book cover designs," "A niche SEO content platform targeting [specific vertical]," etc.)
+
+2. **Market Context** – What gap or pain point exists? Who feels it most acutely?
+
+3. **Strategic Rationale** – Why does Crimson Leaf want to pursue this now?
+
+4. **Initial Constraints** – Any assumptions about team, budget, timeline, or integration points with existing portfolio?
+
+---
+
+## Next Step
+
+**Resubmit with the opportunity details in the message field**, and I will produce a complete business plan following the format specified, with:
+- 10+ cited sources
+- Explicit financial assumptions
+- Benchmarked unit economics
+- Specific 90-day decision gates
+- Clear FUND / PILOT / DO NOT FUND recommendation
+
+---
+
+**Standing by for opportunity details.**
