Josselin Buils contributed to the kili-technology/kili-python-sdk repository by delivering backend features and refactoring efforts that improved data integrity, API clarity, and developer workflows. Over six months, Josselin implemented asset-level transcription export for video annotations, modernized test infrastructure with Docker-based CI/CD, and introduced step-based filtering for assets and labels. He removed deprecated fields and streamlined asset-issue associations by shifting linkage logic to the backend, reducing client complexity and replica lag. Using Python, YAML, and Docker, Josselin focused on API design, backend integration, and code refactoring, producing maintainable solutions that reduced technical debt and improved operational reliability.

October 2025 monthly summary for kili-technology/kili-python-sdk focused on reducing technical debt and aligning API surfaces with current standards. Delivered two deprecation cleanups that streamline the user-facing API and the API gateway/domain models. These changes reduce maintenance burden, minimize risk from legacy fields, and improve consistency for downstream integrations.

July 2025: Delivered backend refactor for Asset and Issue/Question association in kili-python-sdk, centralizing asset linkage on the server via project ID. Removed client-side retrieval of asset IDs during issue creation, fixing replica lag and ensuring accurate association of issues/questions with assets. This strengthens data integrity, reduces client complexity, and improves reliability of asset-related workflows.
