Search people in companies
search_people_in_companiesDeprecated — prefer search_people_by_location_and_seniority with company_social_ids set. Find senior people at a specific SET of companies (anchored by company social ids / slugs), optionally filtered by location and by title keywords. COMPANY-anchored: the input is a fixed list of companies to look inside. Returns name, title, company, seniority, and location for up to per_company_limit people per company.
Use when: Deprecated. Use for people at named companies, e.g. 'VPs at Acme and Globex' — or as the fallback when search_contacts finds no match for a named person/company. Also use for company-wide sweeps (e.g. ICP match) across ALL employees, not just tracked contacts — pass the workspace's ICP title_keywords for that. Narrow further with title_keywords. Prefer SearchPeopleByLocationAndSeniority for location/seniority-only queries not anchored to specific companies.
Behavior: read_only, idempotent
DEPRECATED.
Returns people[] with fields: person_social_id first_name last_name title company_social_id company_name seniority country_code location social_followers_count
IMPORTANT: If the response contains more than one record, always present the options to the user and ask them to choose before taking any follow-up action. Do not act on all results automatically.
