What you'll do

A little scanning station on your desk — a camera on an overhead arm pointed down at a document stand — that Claude Code built the software for: you feed it paper one page at a time, it auto-captures each sheet, de-warps it flat, OCRs it locally, auto-names and files it as a searchable PDF, and drops the text into a full-text search index — so a filing-cabinet drawer becomes a folder you can grep, all offline, nothing ever leaving your machine.
