Could you build this?

Partial A UI for editing Lottie files or wrapping an MCP server is straightforward, but generating valid, semantically coherent vector animations (Lottie JSON) directly from text prompts remains a difficult generative AI problem that standard off-the-shelf LLMs cannot reliably do alone.

What it would actually take: Producing valid, aesthetically pleasing Lottie animations requires either a specialized generative vector model or complex intermediate representations (such as generating code for Remotion/Bodymovin or programmatic SVGs and compiling them into Lottie JSON schemas). The architecture typically involves fine-tuned models on Lottie animation trees, strict JSON-schema enforcement with self-correcting AST validators, and a headless rendering worker (Puppeteer/Skia) to export to MP4 and GIF. Deep expertise in vector graphics rendering pipelines and animation math is necessary.
