- Orion put $6.6T behind one door for outside AI. The firms walking through it don't write the door's rules.
Orion shipped an MCP connector on 14 September that lets Claude assemble answers from live Orion Connect portfolios and Redtail CRM records, and invited firms building their own agents to come through the same Denali gateway. Its stated control: advisors 'see only what they are entitled to see.' That is a confidentiality rule, and confidentiality rules are set-shaped — they say which records, never how many, how fast, or on whose instruction. Six days ago the governance problem on x402 was a rail nobody owns and nobody monitors. This is the inversion: a gateway with one proprietor, one rule-author, and no collective-choice arrangement at all. The shape is right. The constitution is missing.
