Instructions
FIND PEOPLE/CONTACTS ONLY. Search for people by name or email address in organization directory. Returns contact information (name, email, etc.). DO NOT use this to search email messages - use search_emails for that. Use this when you need to find information about a person, such as 'who is John Smith' or 'find contact with email john@company.com'. Default limit: 10. Note: If you encounter a rate limit error (429), the response will include a 'retry_after' field indicating how many seconds to wait before retrying. Returns: {success: boolean, contacts: array, count: integer, limit_reached: boolean, message: string, retry_after: integer (if rate limited)}.
