+# I Need Clarification on the Task
+
+**Issue:** I've received a chair request for "business_plan" on the **Incubation project**, but the operator message is empty. There is no opportunity description, no market analysis data, and no specific business to evaluate.
+
+The template references three research data blocks that should contain:
+- `{biz_data_1}` – Business Model Examples
+- `{biz_data_2}` – Go-to-Market Channel Research  
+- `{biz_data_3}` – Risk and Failure Research
+
+All three are blank placeholders.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Name** – What business or niche is being evaluated? (e.g., "Indie Author Email Funnel Services," "AI Code Review Platform," etc.)
+
+2. **Market Analysis Data** – Summary of TAM, growth drivers, target customer profile, and any existing community research or pain points.
+
+3. **Business Model Research** – Examples of successful models in this space, pricing benchmarks, unit economics from comparable businesses.
+
+4. **Go-to-Market Research** – Distribution channels, customer acquisition costs (CAC), conversion benchmarks, and launch playbooks from similar ventures.
+
+5. **Failure/Risk Research** – Common failure modes in this category, and any industry-specific regulatory or competitive barriers.
+
+---
+
+## Immediate Next Steps
+
+**Option A:** Provide the opportunity details + research data above, and I will produce the full investor-grade business plan within the template.
+
+**Option B:** If this is a greenfield analysis with no pre-existing research, tell me the **opportunity name and target market**, and I will:
+- Conduct preliminary research discovery
+- Draft a high-level business thesis
+- Flag what data gaps remain before a full plan can be written
+
+Which path should I take?
