+**Status:** UNABLE TO PROCEED

+**Reason:** The operator message field is empty. No business opportunity, market context, or project scope has been provided.

+
+## What I Need to Produce Your Business Plan
+
+To generate an investor-grade business plan as **Orion, Director of Research**, I require:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Brief** — What is the business concept?
+   - Example: "AI-powered podcast transcription service for indie content creators"
+   - Example: "Manuscript formatting and KDP-optimization Tenant"
+
+2. **Market Data (if available)** — The RAG context references placeholders:
+   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
+   - `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research
+   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research
+   
+   These are **empty in your submission**.
+
+3. **Target Customer Profile** — Who does this serve?
+   - Example: "Self-published authors earning $0–$50K/year"
+   - Example: "B2B SaaS founders with <$2M ARR"
+
+4. **Strategic Context** — How does this fit Crimson Leaf's portfolio?
+   - Is this a new Tenant incubation?
+   - Does it extend an existing Tenant?
+   - What makes it distinct?
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please resubmit with:**
+
+```
+*** OPPORTUNITY BRIEF ***
+[Business concept, target customer, primary problem]
+
+*** MARKET DATA ***
+[Business model examples, GTM research, risk analysis — or indicate if starting from first principles]
+
+*** STRATEGIC CONTEXT ***
+[How this aligns with Crimson Leaf's portfolio and charter]
+```
+
+Once you provide the opportunity details, I will produce a complete, cited, investor-grade business plan ready for David's review.
