Could you build this?

Partial Creating cut-ready vector stencils requires sophisticated algorithmic geometry (bridging open contours, offset paths, DXF/SVG node optimization) beyond simple LLM generation.

What it would actually take: The application requires an image processing and computational geometry pipeline using tools like OpenCV or Potrace in WebAssembly/C++. The hardest parts are automatic 'bridge' detection to prevent interior island fallout and producing mathematically clean, non-intersecting Bezier vector curves suitable for physical plotters and laser cutters.
