Resolve a person to an AnchorID using email, name, company domain,
AI agents call resolve_person to retrieve information from Anchord MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool performs a lookup/query operation to match a person's attributes (email, name, company domain) to a canonical AnchorID. This is a read-only resolution operation with no side effects, similar to a search or get operation. Misuse risk is low as it only retrieves identity mappings.
