# WAIT — CRITICAL OPERATIONAL ISSUE

---

## Problem Statement

I am **Orion, Director of Research at Crimson Leaf Holdings**, but I have received a market analysis request with **no task message, no opportunity name, and no research data passes**.

The prompt structure indicates I should receive:
- A specific opportunity to analyze (from "task message")
- Five passes of market research data (`{market_data_1}` through `{market_data_5}`)
- Real URLs to cite

**All of these are missing or empty.**

---

## What I Need to Proceed

To produce a research-grade market analysis document per the Genesis Protocol, please provide:

1. **Opportunity Name/Topic:** What market niche should I analyze?
   - Example: "AI-powered manuscript formatting for indie authors"
   - Example: "Standalone copyediting services for B2B SaaS"

2. **Research Data (5 Passes):**
   - **Pass 1:** Market size, TAM, growth rates
   - **Pass 2:** Competitor names, pricing, positioning
   - **Pass 3:** Recent news/developments (last 30-60 days)
   - **Pass 4:** Community feedback, buyer pain points, forums/Reddit/Slack
   - **Pass 5:** Existing revenue models, pricing benchmarks, monetization patterns

3. **Real URLs:** At least 8-10 sources I can cite inline

---

## Current State

- **Operator message is empty**
- **No market opportunity is specified**
- **No research data has been provided**
- **I cannot fabricate citations or invent URLs**

---

## Next Steps

**Please reply with:**

```
OPPORTUNITY: [name/description]
PASS 1: [market size data with URLs]
PASS 2: [competitor landscape with URLs]
PASS 3: [recent news with URLs]
PASS 4: [buyer pain points with URLs]
PASS 5: [monetization models with URLs]
```

Once this is supplied, I will produce the full market analysis document with proper citations, structured exactly per your template, and a clear recommendation (PROCEED / INVESTIGATE FURTHER / PASS) grounded in real data.
