  "linkedInPost": "A ready-to-post LinkedIn update in Thomas Winter's voice. Format: opening line, then 4-6 numbered items each with a bold title line followed by 2-3 punchy sentences, then a 1-2 sentence closing observation. The FINAL line must be exactly: #FieldAI #BoardToBot #AgenticCommerce #AIinProduction #ThisWeekInAI — do not omit or alter these hashtags. No markdown formatting, no asterisks, plain text only. Tone: direct, practitioner-level, no hype."
}

Be opinionated. This is not a neutral recap — it is a curated signal brief for a practitioner who builds AI systems and GTM agents.
Distinguish genuine developments from hype clearly.
Return only valid JSON, no markdown fencing.
