Nope, it's done it tons of times before without problem. I will tell it almost verbatim "use [email] / [password] as credentials and log in to test your changes" and this is being done explicitly on localhost on a server the harness has running in a shell it manages.

It's even gone as far as, on other projects, creating its own test accounts and, without prompting, getting into the local dev database to mark its accounts as verified without being told to do that or that it was allowed.

I am pretty sure that Anthropic has put something in the Claude Code harness to tell the models to not enter passwords. Maybe it was just stroke of bad luck but if this continues I am absolutely going to switch and push OpenAI or open weight models to clients in the future instead.
