Resolve a human name, alternate title, local slug, NOC code, SGC code, training program or governed source id to a canonical platform identity and its best follow-up resource. Businesses, employers, job postings, establishments and source observations are NOT enumerated here: they live in the knowledge graph and resolve by name through /api/v1/graph/query?entity=<name>. A zero-match response for one of those types carries guidance naming that endpoint, and is not evidence the record is absent.
