This looks like an Intel Mac.
Orion is built only for Apple silicon (M1 and later), so it won't open here. There is no Intel build.

Opening it the first time
macOS stops the first launch because this alpha is signed ad hoc and isn't notarized. The app is the same either way; the warning is about who vouched for it.
Drag Orion to Applications
Open the downloaded disk image and drag Orion onto the Applications folder beside it.
Open it from the right-click menu
Right-click Orion in Applications, choose Open, then Open again. You do this once.
No Open button? Use Terminal
This clears the download flag macOS put on the app. It also lets Claude and other agents start Orion's MCP server.
