{ "name": "get_founder", "arguments": { "username": "sarp" } }

and gets back Markdown for the model plus structuredContent shaped like this (trimmed):

structuredContent

  "founder": {
    "type": "founder",
    "username": "sarp",
    "name": "Mustafa Sarp Yalcin",
    "headline": "Founder",
    "bio": "",
    "url": "https://www.founder.best/founders/sarp",
    "product_count": 1,
    "total_upvotes_received": 12,
    "follower_count": 0,
    "following_count": 0,
    "social_links": [{ "platform": "website", "url": "https://bidpage.app" }],
    "products": [
      {
        "name": "BidPage",
        "slug": "bidpage",
        "tagline": "Turn your next sponsorship into an auction.",
        "url": "https://www.founder.best/products/bidpage",
