+# ⚠️ OPERATION HALTED
+
+I cannot complete this request because **the operator message is empty** — there is no market analysis task, opportunity name, or research objective specified.
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+To produce a research-grade market analysis document as Orion, Director of Research, I require:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name/Niche**: The specific market, product category, or business opportunity to analyze
+2. **Research Data Passes**: The five market data passes referenced in the template:
+   - {market_data_1}: TAM, growth, macroeconomic drivers
+   - {market_data_2}: Competitive landscape, pricing
+   - {market_data_3}: Recent news/developments
+   - {market_data_4}: Community voice, buyer pain points
+   - {market_data_5}: Revenue/monetization models
+
+3. **Context**: Any Crimson Leaf-specific constraints or strategic parameters
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please provide:**
+
+```
+Opportunity: [name of market/niche to analyze]
+
+Market Data Pass 1 (TAM):
+[data and URLs]
+
+Market Data Pass 2 (Competitors):
+[data and URLs]
+
+Market Data Pass 3 (News):
+[data and URLs]
+
+Market Data Pass 4 (Community):
+[data and URLs]
+
+Market Data Pass 5 (Monetization):
+[data and URLs]
+```
+
+Once you supply the research passes and opportunity name, I will produce a citation-rigorous market analysis document with:
+- Real URLs (no invented sources)
+- Structured competitive tables
+- Revenue projections grounded in explicit assumptions
+- Clear PROCEED/INVESTIGATE/PASS recommendation
+- Full source attribution
+
+**Awaiting opportunity details.**
