The LLM
Not us
Claude or another third-party model can hallucinate, botch the numbers, invent a name. That call is not Helmsman.
No installer — pre-register instead
Pass-through
Helmsman is middleware: it translates, vetoes, forwards. The LLM proposes. You confirm. The broker — on your account — is the final executor.

This is us
Routing, rules, covers. If the stop is missing, if size moved, if you did not say yes — the pipe closes. We do not hold your book.
Final executor
Alpaca, Tradier, or the venue you connect. If an order exists, it exists on their book. Helmsman is not your intermediary and not your bank.
If the order exists, it exists on your account, after your yes. Helmsman is the pipe. Not the captain. Not the till.
We are in early access. Skills and broker adapters are moving fast. You can pre-register: not a self-serve paper switch.
