+# ⚠️ CRITICAL ISSUE: INCOMPLETE TASK SPECIFICATION
+
+Orion cannot proceed with the business plan deliverable.
+
+---
+
+## What's Missing
+
+The operator message is **empty**. The required fields are blank:
+
+```
+Operator: [BLANK]
+Message: [BLANK]
+```
+
+This means:
+
+1. **No opportunity name** — I don't know what business to plan for
+2. **No market context** — The research placeholders (`{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}`) are unfilled
+3. **No specific problem statement** — I cannot anchor the plan to a real customer need
+4. **No decision maker context** — "David" is mentioned but no clear approval authority is specified
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+To produce an investor-grade business plan, please provide:
+
+### 1. **The Opportunity Itself**
+- What business are we incubating? (e.g., "AI-powered indie author web storefronts," "manuscript formatting service," etc.)
+- Who is the primary customer?
+- What specific problem does it solve?
+
+### 2. **The Market Research Data**
+- `{biz_data_1}`: Existing business model examples (URLs, pricing structures, revenue benchmarks)
+- `{biz_data_2}`: Go-to-market channel research (traffic sources, conversion funnels, CAC benchmarks)
+- `{biz_data_3}`: Failure modes and risk research (competitor failures, market barriers, customer churn data)
+
+### 3. **The Decision Context**
+- Who is "David"? (Assumed: Crimson Leaf CEO, Genesis Fund guardian?)
+- What is the funding ask? (Seed budget range?)
+- Timeline constraint? (When does David need this decision?)
+
+---
+
+## How to Resubmit
+
+**Format:**
+
+```
+Operator: [Name/Title]
+Message: 
+
+OPPORTUNITY: [Business name and 1-2 sentence description]
+
+MARKET DATA:
+{biz_data_1}: [Paste business model research, URLs, pricing examples]
+{biz_data_2}: [Paste GTM channel research, conversion rates, traffic sources]
+{biz_data_3}: [Paste failure research, competitor URLs, churn/abandonment data]
+
+DECISION CONTEXT:
+- Funding ask: $[X]
+- Timeline: [Days to decision]
+- Key constraint: [If any]
+```
+
+Once provided, Orion will deliver a complete, citation-rich business plan ready for Genesis adjudication and capital allocation review.
+
+---
+
+**Status:** ⏸️ **AWAITING INPUT** — Task cannot proceed without opportunity specification and research data.
