Default Ek goes into gear with car off not on

Ok I got a ek with y7 motor that drove fine everyday
In the last week I noticed hearing kind of a whistling sound like throw out bearing Or something like that so I kinda felt something coming
Also when acceleratin on freeway car would feel shaky out of nowhere
Then it would be fine it would come and go

Ok so today after work as I was driving home the clutch pedal
Felt to have no pressure in it so I made it home but when I went out
To leave the car starts fine but does NOT go
Into gear with the car on . It DOES go into gear with the car OFF

also just got home and seems to have leaked fluid too dark to see from where
Any info on where to start or what u may think will help! Thanks

Check your clutch hydraulic system. Strong chance is either your master or slave cylinder went out, or a line went out. That drained all of your clutch fluid, which made your clutch non-functional. Explains all of the problems you're having.

Ok so just got home from work and I just noticed it looked like it leaked a lot under clutch pedal on the carpet there's a big stain so maybe the master cylinder?

I didn't say before but when I drove it home before it stopped
Going into gear when I would put it in first gear or
Reverse the car would want to go by itself without me even giving it gas

Yes, it sounds like your CMC took a **** on itself. Check your clutch fluid level. Refill it. See where the fluid is coming out. Replace that part.
