Search people synchronously

Retrieve up to 150 people inline per request; async:true or a larger num_results starts a background People Set instead and returns 202 with set_id, items_url and events_url. instant and fast return indexed candidates. auto and deep research the complete query and explicit filters before returning matches with verification references; uncertain and rejected candidates are excluded from results, grounding and billing. Auto/deep compile the query, verify candidates, and run one bounded web recovery pass when too few match. Each verification pass permits up to 30 seconds for auto or 45 seconds for deep; recovery discovery permits 45 or 60 seconds respectively. A partial status means the requested count was not filled or verification hit its deadline. Use Sets for durable research of large result sets. Verification is evidence-based model assessment, separate from identity verification. Requires people:search.
