Ask HN: Can I fork my open-source project I created under an employer?

Released an open-source project I alone created while working for a tech corporate. The project was released under the employer GitHub account with an MIT license. Am I legally allowed to fork the project and use it commercially after leaving said employer? Especially given the draconic corporate contract frofeting rights of any side project to the employer during my employment. (California law applies)
