CRITICAL ERROR: TASK INCOMPLETE


Problem

The operator has submitted a business plan request with no task message content. The template asks me to:

  1. "Produce a full, investor-grade business plan for the opportunity in the task message"
  2. Reference {biz_data_1}, {biz_data_2}, {biz_data_3} — which are all empty placeholders
  3. Cite market analysis "already committed to Gitea" — which I cannot access

This is not a failure of execution. This is a missing input.


What I Need to Proceed

To deliver a credible business plan for David's funding review, please provide:

1. The Opportunity Statement (Required)

  • What business is being proposed?
  • What specific market gap or customer need does it address?
  • Example: "AI-powered email newsletter automation for indie authors targeting 10K-50K subscriber lists"

2. Market Research Data (Required — fill the placeholders above)

  • {biz_data_1}: Business model examples, pricing benchmarks, revenue patterns
  • {biz_data_2}: Go-to-market channels, acquisition costs, conversion rates
  • {biz_data_3}: Failure modes, competitive threats, unit economics breakdowns

3. Existing Market Analysis (Referenced)

  • URL or summary of the analysis "already committed to Gitea"
  • Key TAM figures, growth rates, customer segments

4. Clarifications

  • Who is "David"? (CEO, Board member, Capital decision-maker?)
  • Budget range? (What's the seed capital under consideration?)
  • Timeline? (When does David need this plan?)
