Partial The UI and parameter controls are vibe-codeable, but a real After Effects plugin needs the C++ Adobe SDK and a convincing optical or flare simulation model.
What it would actually take: The plugin needs a native C++ effect built against the Adobe After Effects SDK with GPU or CPU rendering pipelines. The hard part is a physically plausible lens-flare and optics model, which requires graphics and optics expertise and testing across AE versions.
