how do i make geckolib animated mob hold a weapon in his hand

I have a mob created by the Geckolib plugin and it has its own model. But as I understood, to make it hold a weapon in its hand and it is displayed, you need a zombie or biped model type, how can I do this with my model?

Maybe try looking at this tutorial: https://mcreator.net/forum/115634/held-item-layer-your-custom-model-1201-only

I'm not sure if it works for geckolib models, but it is probably the best resource for what you are trying to do that I have seen in the past few years.
