This org is now a redirect shell. On 2026-04-22, all active FineFab, life, and makelife repositories were transferred to the personal user account github.com/electron-rare for simpler ownership during the pre-launch phase of the L'Electron Rare business entity.

GitHub keeps 301 redirects from these old org URLs for 90 days. After that, update any remaining clones with git remote set-url origin git@github.com:electron-rare/<repo>.git.

Two repositories stay here for now: KIKI-models-tuning and KIKI-Mac_tunner — the ML training toolkits referenced below.

Historical context preserved below.

"The boundary between physical and non-physical is very imprecise for us." — Donna Haraway, A Cyborg Manifesto

Bridging embedded hardware and AI — local-first, multi-machine, no cloud lock-in.

Two public releases this week, covering the full fine-tuning pipeline:

Training pipeline (KIKI-Mac_tunner) and its output model (micro-kiki-v3) are both open-source. Benchmarks, forks, and negative findings welcome on the discussion thread.

We build monstrous systems — in Haraway's sense. Hybrid organisms where ESP32 firmware and language models share the same nervous system, where a PCB design agent and a fine-tuned LLM are parts of one body.

AI should run where the work happens: on the edge, across heterogeneous machines, orchestrated as a single organism. L'Electron Rare builds the stack that connects embedded firmware to LLM inference to real-time cockpits — without sending a single byte to someone else's cloud.

Every layer is designed to be owned, modified, and deployed by the people who use it.

Two interconnected ecosystems — the agentic core and the manufacturing platform:

Open frontier work on cognition, self-organization, and fine-tuning — public repos, paper drafts, reproducible experiments:

FineFab (originally Factory 4 Life) — our AI-native manufacturing and electronics platform, decomposed into focused modules. The repo naming reflects the project's evolution:

• life-* — core platform services (the "Life" in Factory 4 Life)
• makelife-* — hardware, firmware, and CAD layers (the "Make" in MakeLife)
• finefab-* — shared infrastructure and integration (the unified FineFab identity)
• KIKI-* — ML / fine-tuning pipeline (internal codename)

All the FineFab subprojects listed above are assembled inside a single monorepo, factory-4-life, with 21 git submodules pinned to known-good SHAs. One clone, one docker compose, one CI-green check across the stack:

Phase 7 in progress — Industrialisation et Intégration Complète: hardened traefik + Keycloak OIDC across every service, shared forward-auth cookie on .saillant.cc, nightly RAG indexer, Grafana + Jaeger + Langfuse dashboards wired end-to-end. See the monorepo CLAUDE.md for the full map of 24 nested CLAUDE.md files and per-domain runbooks.
