I'm making a JMAP client, and I'm not sure how to serialise the requests and responses. JMAP uses an Invocation form:

data class Invocation(
    val name: String,
    val arguments: Response,
    val methodCallId: String
)

Here the Response is a sealed class with subclasses. When deserialising I'd like to discriminate the type of Response using the name field from Invocation. How can I do that?

I am not sure on what the ideal solution will be for this use-cae, but you can implement a KSerializer.
