kforris/README.md

Hi, I’m kforris.

I build at the intersection of open-source software, local-first AI, creative tools, and community infrastructure.

My work moves between code, product design, self-hosted systems, digital fabrication, and robotics. I am especially interested in how AI agents can help people turn intentions into durable, inspectable workflows—without taking judgment or ownership away from the people using them.

Current work

Last verified from public GitHub activity: 24 August 2026.

  • OpenPrintBench — building a local-first, evidence-oriented slicer regression toolkit; the first isolated Bambu Studio runner remains in review with green Python 3.11–3.13 CI.
  • Boron Context — maintaining the project through v0.7.1, with twenty-two merged pull requests covering inspectable context, continuity, and reliability.
  • NotionNext — six upstream fixes are merged, including the verified follow-up for Invisible Pages in custom menus.
  • Open Design — three focused fixes are open; their remaining gates include conflict integration, maintainer review, self-hosted CI, and manual QA.
  • build123d — fourteen focused contributions are merged and seven remain open; current work is awaiting repository CI or maintainer review and merge decisions.

What I care about

I believe technology should expand human agency, not reduce people to data points or replace their right to decide.

For me, digital humanism means building systems where:

  • people can understand, own, adapt, and leave the tools they use;
  • important actions remain observable, reversible, and subject to human approval;
  • provenance and evidence matter as much as a successful output;
  • local-first and self-hosted options remain viable where they meaningfully protect autonomy;
  • maintenance, documentation, and careful review are treated as core product work.

Open source is how many of these values become practical. It is not only a licensing model to me—it is shared stewardship, public reasoning, reproducible bugs, respectful review, and responsibility to downstream users.

Open-source work

Project My role What I work on
OpenPrintBench Creator and primary maintainer Local-first slicer regression plans, isolated execution, and evidence that keeps planned, digitally validated, and physically validated states distinct
Boron Context Creator and maintainer An open-source intention and context layer for inspectable agentic work
Shredhub community site Maintainer The public community website, deployment layer, and downstream integration with NotionNext
build123d Contributor CAD API behavior, export validation, documentation, dependency maintenance, and cross-platform regression tests
Open Design Contributor Focused bug fixes, regression tests, runtime UI validation, and cross-platform reliability
NotionNext Contributor and downstream maintainer User-facing fixes informed by operating a real downstream community site

I prefer small, falsifiable changes: reproduce the problem, add the cheapest meaningful regression test, make the narrowest maintainable fix, and verify the real user-facing surface—not only the test runner.

Current interests

  • Local-first AI and human-in-the-loop agent systems
  • Open-source maintenance, review, and contribution automation
  • Knowledge graphs, ontologies, and personal knowledge infrastructure
  • Creative coding, 3D tools, digital fabrication, and small-scale production
  • Robotics, open hardware, and embodied intelligence
  • Self-hosted community platforms and durable digital archives
  • Digital humanities, technology ethics, and public-interest software

I work in both English and Chinese, and I enjoy turning one-off discoveries into workflows that other people can inspect and reuse.

Let’s build humane tools

I’m interested in collaborating on open tools that make AI more legible, accountable, and useful—especially projects that give individuals and communities more agency over their knowledge, creative work, and infrastructure.
