I have a really stupid problem that I cannot solve in the last hour.

I'm trying to use result of image mutation in another action

Here is the mutation

export default mutation(async ({ db, auth }, project: Id<"projects">, url: string): Promise<Document<"images">> => {
    const user = await getCurrentUser(db, auth);
    const id = await db.insert("images", {
      project: project,
      url: url,
    });
    const val = await db.get(id);
    if (val == null) {
      throw new Error(`Was not able to query the image ${id} after inserting`)
    }
    return val;
  });


Here is the callsite code

var images = []
const image = await runMutation("newImage", project_id, "https://dummyimage.com/300.png/09f/fff");
images.push(image._id)
const generation = {
    images: images,
}
const createdGeneration = await runMutation("storeGeneration", generation);


I'm getting error
failure
Field name $id starts with a '$', which is reserved.

How I can pass the _id value that I got from one mutation into another through the action?
