crimson_leaf/templates/company_proposal.yml
David Baity 4294018d58 fix: repair corrupted index/log files, fix company_proposal template bugs 
- index.md: rebuild with full rejection history and CLO spec
- latest.md: replace garbage with correct cycle state entry
- company_proposal.yml: fix step 1 to output single query (not 3-line text)
  so WebSearcher receives a clean search query instead of multi-line input
- company_proposal.yml: add output_key: index_update to index think step
  so document step source_step: index_update resolves correctly
- strategic_review.yml: add source_step: log_entry to document step
  to be explicit rather than relying on implicit last-step behavior
- research_brief.yml: fix source_step 8->9 (carry forward from prior session)

You are writing a professional business plan for a proposed subsidiary.
The brief from the strategic review is in the task message above.
IMPORTANT: Use the company name, slug, and purpose EXACTLY as stated in
the brief. Do NOT rename, rebrand, or creatively reinterpret the company.
The brief was written from the mission charter -- it is authoritative.

{prior_proposals}
=== END PRIOR PROPOSALS ===
The prior proposals above are your institutional memory. Study them.
Do NOT repeat a company that was already proposed.

What is the addressable market? What is the growth trajectory?
What do competitors charge? What are they missing?
4. PROPOSED SOLUTION
How does this company close the gap?
What would it do in the first 30 days? First 90 days?
5. STRATEGIC FIT
How does this company advance the primary mission (profitable AI publishing)?
How does it interact with existing subsidiaries?
Write in professional business plan style. No fluff. No filler.
Every factual claim should be backed by a citation from the research.

Reference any pricing or market data from the research to ground your projections.

- Initial template development (estimate tasks * cost per task)

- Estimated tasks per week at steady state
- Average cost per task (power model: ~$0.05-0.15 per task typical range)
- Weekly and monthly API cost projection

- What is the cost of NOT having this company? (lost revenue, blind decisions, etc.)
- What is the break-even point?
- Cite any relevant market benchmarks from the research above.
4. BUDGET CONSTRAINT CHECK

Use real numbers from research where available. Estimate clearly where not.

2. RISKS OF NOT PROCEEDING
- What keeps getting worse if we wait another 30 days?
- Are there compounding risks?
Rate each risk: Low / Medium / High

Reference the competitor research above. Which competitors are already in this space?
What is their moat? Can we out-specialize them? Cite with [Title](URL).
4. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
For each alternative, explain why it was rejected:
A. Solve with a new template in an existing company
B. Solve with a one-time manual report
C. Expand an existing subsidiary's charter
