# HALT — MISSING TASK CONTEXT

I'm **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, but I cannot produce a business plan because the **operator message is empty**.

The prompt structure expects:

```
*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
Operator: 
Message: [OPPORTUNITY DESCRIPTION HERE]
```

**What I need from you:**

1. **Opportunity Name & Description** — What business should I evaluate? (e.g., "AI-powered indie author web storefronts," "automated SEO content for SaaS," "manuscript formatting service for self-publishers")

2. **Market Research Data** — The template references:
   - `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
   - `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research
   - `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research
   
   These placeholders are **unpopulated**. Please provide:
   - Competitor analysis with URLs
   - Pricing benchmarks with sources
   - GTM channel data with conversion rates
   - Failure case studies

3. **Investment Parameters** — Any constraints?
   - Maximum seed budget?
   - Timeline pressure?
   - Strategic must-haves (e.g., "must integrate with existing author platform")?

---

## Next Step

**Please resubmit with:**

```
*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
Operator: [your name]
Message: 
[Opportunity description + market research data + any constraints]
```

Once you provide the opportunity details and research data, I will produce a **complete, investor-grade business plan** in the format specified, with full citations and financial assumptions.

**Standing by.**
