+# URGENT: TASK INCOMPLETE — MISSING CRITICAL INPUT
+
+Orion here. I've received the business plan charter and operational parameters, but **the actual opportunity description is missing from your message**.
+
+To deliver an investor-grade business plan, I need:
+
+## REQUIRED INPUT:
+1. **Opportunity Name** — What venture are we planning?
+2. **Problem Statement** — What gap or need does this address?
+3. **Target Customer** — Who are we serving?
+4. **Proposed Solution** — How does Crimson Leaf solve it?
+5. **Strategic Context** — Why is this aligned with CL's incubation mandate?
+
+## WHAT I HAVE:
+- ✅ Crimson Leaf charter and governance framework
+- ✅ Business plan template and format requirements
+- ✅ Citation and assumption documentation standards
+- ❌ **The actual business opportunity to analyze**
+
+---
+
+## NEXT STEPS:
+
+**Please provide:**
+- The specific business opportunity description
+- Any existing market research, RAG data, or preliminary findings
+- Target launch timeline
+- Initial budget parameters (if known)
+
+Once you provide the opportunity details, I will deliver a complete, investor-grade business plan following the format specified, with:
+- Minimum 10 cited sources
+- Explicit assumptions for all financial projections
+- 90-day decision gates
+- Risk register with mitigation strategies
+- Clear FUND / PILOT / DO NOT FUND recommendation
+
+**Awaiting opportunity brief.**
+
