Out of curiosity, I asked Claude Opus 5.5 to make me an update video in Caddis with one (pretty lazy) prompt. Definitely has some issues, but crazy to see what it made on its own.
Caddis 1.1.0 is out - its the biggest update to my motion graphics tool yet.
MCP Improvements, Particles, animated grid layouts, loops, Cryptomatte, and more.
caddis.app
Caddis got some major upgrades this month.
→ Linux support is live today.
→ MCP support — connect an AI agent and let it animate directly in Caddis.
If you're looking for a new motion design tool or just like playing with apps come try it out @ caddis.app
