There's the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideographic_Description_Charac... that kind of does that. The problem is that there's character divergence (see all the brouhaha about Unicode Han unification), so there needs to be something else to select variants too.
As a reference, I don't believe any of the pre-Unicode CJK&c encodings attempted that.
