people_add_alias: {e}

Error message

people_add_alias: {e}

What it means

Error-surfacing wrapper in the people_add_alias tool's execute: the add_handle_alias driver call failed after arguments parsed and the guard was acquired. The alias was not added; typical causes are an unknown person_id or a driver-level rejection. It is a re-wrap, so the underlying driver error follows the prefix.

Solutions

1. Check for duplicate handle aliases in the chained error
2. Retry transient store failures
3. Verify the person exists before adding an alias
