What 㓬 means
It describes splitting something open or scooping material out.
Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, does not list 㓬. The Longkan Shoujian records it in 997; later lexicons do too.
A classical line uses 刳 for hollowing wood into a boat; the classic Zhuangzi also uses it figuratively in a line about shedding desire.
Its appearance signals a historical dictionary or classical-text context.

1Why does 㓬 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
