+# HALTING REQUEST
+
+I must pause and respectfully flag a **structural problem** before proceeding.
+
+---
+
+## The Issue
+
+The prompt requests a **full, investor-grade business plan**, but the **task message is empty**:
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+There is **no opportunity description, no market analysis, no prior research commits to Gitea**, and no `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, or `{biz_data_3}` populated into the template.
+
+The instruction states:
+> *"The market analysis for this opportunity has already been committed to Gitea. Use the opportunity details from the task message as your foundation."*
+
+**I cannot write this deliverable without:**
+
+1. **The opportunity statement** – What business are we planning? (indie author web presence? manuscript formatting? something else?)
+2. **The market analysis** – TAM, growth drivers, competitive landscape
+3. **The research data** – Business model examples, GTM channels, failure case studies
+4. **The scope** – Is this a Tenant charter + business plan, or just the plan?
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+**Please provide:**
+
+1. **Task/Opportunity Brief**: One paragraph describing the business opportunity Orion should plan (e.g., "Indie author digital storefront design for self-publishing," "AI-assisted manuscript formatting," etc.)
+
+2. **Market Analysis** (or Gitea commit reference): TAM, growth rate, key drivers, customer segment details
+
+3. **Competitive Research**: 3-5 competitor names/URLs, their strengths/weaknesses
+
+4. **Business Model Research**: Pricing benchmarks, unit economics references, similar business structures
+
+5. **GTM Channel Data**: Which channels work best for this segment? (SEO, affiliate networks, email, paid ads, community?)
+
+6. **Failure Case Studies**: What causes businesses in this space to fail?
+
+---
+
+## Constitutional Note
+
+Per **Crimson Leaf Charter §3 (Forbidden Activities)**, I am prohibited from inventing market research, fabricating benchmark citations, or guessing at financial models. This plan must be evidence-grounded and honest about uncertainty.
+
+**Please resubmit with the opportunity details and research inputs, and I will deliver a 95%+ adjudication-ready business plan within the hour.**
