+# ⚠️ CRITICAL BLOCKING ISSUE
+
+I cannot produce this business plan deliverable because **the task message is empty**.
+
+The system prompt instructs me to:
+> "Produce a full, investor-grade business plan for the opportunity in the task message."
+
+But the **CURRENT MESSAGE** section shows:
+```
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+Both fields are blank. There is no opportunity description, no market context, no specific business idea to evaluate.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Description** — What business are we evaluating? (e.g., "AI-powered indie author landing page design," "manuscript formatting for self-publishers," etc.)
+
+2. **The Market Context** — Any specific data about the target market, customer profile, or problem statement.
+
+3. **The Research Data** — The three research sections referenced but not populated:
+   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
+   - `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research
+   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research
+
+4. **Decision Maker** — Confirm: Is David (the Founding CEO) the capital authority, or should this plan be addressed to Edgar or another board member?
+
+---
+
+## Why This Matters
+
+Per the **Genesis Protocol** (Charter Section 5), no business plan can move to adjudication without:
+- ✅ A clear problem statement
+- ✅ A specific customer or market
+- ✅ Cited competitive and market research
+- ✅ Realistic financial assumptions backed by data
+
+**Please resubmit with the opportunity details and research payload, and I will produce a 95%+ adjudication-ready business plan.**
