Look an Old Norse word up on Wiktionary and return its senses plus full declension/conjugation tables — attested content (including the verbs' mediopassive voice), not invented. Any form of the word works; an inflected query is resolved to its lemma automatically via previously cached paradigms and the result notes the resolution. With search_language='eng' the query is an English word instead: the result lists its per-sense Old Norse equivalents (the translations block) plus their expanded entries. Returns Markdown plus the same result as structuredContent matching the declared outputSchema. Results are cached server-side; first-time queries reach the live upstream politely and calls are rate limited — on a rate-limit error, wait a few seconds and retry. Content is from en.wiktionary.org (CC BY-SA 4.0 — attribute and share alike if republished).

Fetch the full declension (nominals) or conjugation (verbs — active AND mediopassive) tables for a lemma identified by a search result's inflection handle (entry_id + word_class). Use this only when a search ran without inline forms or left a match un-expanded — a default search already returns each match's table inline. Returns Markdown plus the table as structuredContent with the shape {"result": <paradigm>} per the declared outputSchema — switch on result.category ('nominal' | 'verbal' | 'not_found') before reading the body.
