RavenDB adapter

I have built my own adapter for RavenDB. Raven is a document database and when I use the organization plugin I get JSON as a string in the metadata. Is it possible to make better auth not to serialize the metadata field as a string? Is this metadata needed for the organization plugin to work? This is how the document look like in RavenDB. 
{
    "name": "Marcus plats",
    "slug": "marcus-plats",
    "logo": "🏢",
    "createdAt": "2025-09-04T17:24:54.7130000",
    "metadata": "{\"createdFromLocal\":true,\"domain\":\"marcus-plats\",\"createdAt\":\"2025-09-04T15:24:54.667Z\",\"updatedAt\":\"2025-09-04T15:24:54.667Z\"}",
    "@metadata": {
        "@collection": "Organizations",
        "@nested-object-types": {
            "createdAt": "date"
        },
        "Raven-Node-Type": null
    }
}
{
    "name": "Marcus plats",
    "slug": "marcus-plats",
    "logo": "🏢",
    "createdAt": "2025-09-04T17:24:54.7130000",

    "@metadata": {
        "@collection": "Organizations",
        "@nested-object-types": {
            "createdAt": "date"
        },
        "Raven-Node-Type": null
    }
}

Yeah this is normal, we don't fully support JSON yet so we convert to strings
