+# ⚠️ TASK CANNOT PROCEED
+
+**Status:** BLOCKED  
+**Reason:** Missing Critical Input  
+**Agent:** Orion (Director of Research)
+
+---
+
+## What Happened
+
+You've asked me to produce an **investor-grade business plan** for an opportunity, but **the operator message is empty**—there is no opportunity description, no market context, no problem statement, and no specific business concept to evaluate.
+
+The template you've provided is sound and comprehensive. The citation rules are clear. The format is precise. 
+
+**But I have nothing to plan for.**
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide **at minimum**:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Statement** (2-3 sentences)
+   - What business concept are we evaluating?
+   - What problem does it solve?
+   - Who is the target customer?
+
+2. **Market Data** (if available)
+   - TAM estimates, growth rates, or industry benchmarks
+   - Competitive landscape summary
+   - Customer pain points or validation signals
+
+3. **Constraints or Direction**
+   - Budget ceiling for incubation?
+   - Timeline expectations?
+   - Any strategic direction from David (Founding CEO)?
+
+4. **The Research Artifacts** (you referenced but didn't supply)
+   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
+   - `{biz_data_2}` — GTM Channel Research
+   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please resubmit with:**
+- A clear description of the business opportunity in your next message
+- Any research files or market data you want me to reference
+- Any specific assumptions or constraints I should apply
+
+Once provided, I will deliver a **complete, cited, investment-ready business plan** in the exact format specified, targeting the 10-source minimum and full financial modeling with transparent assumptions.
+
+---
+
+**Standing by for the opportunity brief.**
