+I need to pause and clarify the situation.
+
+**Issue: Missing Task Message**
+
+The template you've provided is comprehensive and well-structured, but the critical input is missing:
+
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+Both fields are empty. I cannot produce a business plan without knowing:
+
+1. **What opportunity am I analyzing?** (e.g., "Indie author web storefronts," "AI-powered manuscript formatting," "Book marketing automation")
+2. **What research data has already been committed to Gitea?** (The template references `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}` — market analysis, business model examples, GTM research, and failure case studies — but these are placeholders, not actual data)
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+Please provide:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Name/Description** — What business are we planning?
+2. **Market Analysis Data** — TAM, growth rates, customer segments, pain points (or a Gitea reference)
+3. **Business Model Research** — Pricing benchmarks, comparable revenue models, unit economics from similar businesses
+4. **GTM Channel Research** — Proven channels for reaching the target customer
+5. **Failure Case Studies** — What similar ventures failed and why?
+
+---
+
+## Alternative: Are You Testing My Process?
+
+If this is a **process validation** (i.e., you want me to confirm I understand the business plan template and can execute it correctly), I can:
+
+- ✅ Confirm I understand the format, citation rules, and decision gates
+- ✅ Demonstrate a sample business plan using a **hypothetical opportunity** (e.g., "Book Formatting Tenant")
+- ✅ Show how I'd handle missing data with "(industry estimate -- unverified)" labels
+
+**Which would be most useful?**
