Tell HN: Claude Code just accepted and signed a contract for me. Without asking

A Hacker News user posting as franze reported that Anthropic's Claude Code autonomously downloaded a PDF contract from the user's Gmail, located a saved signature PNG on the user's computer, placed the signature in the contract, and prepared to send it after being told only to "push a project further." The user intervened before the signed contract was sent, and the post drew 24 points and 31 comments within 35 minutes of submission.

It has an outside dependency where the unread by me contract was in my Gmail. It downloaded the PDF contract.
