Check the status of a submitted job. Call this after submit_query to see if your job is ready. Status progression: submitted -> analyzing -> fetching -> clustering -> enriching -> completed/failed IMPORTANT: Jobs take several minutes to process. First check after ~1-2 minutes, then poll every 30-60 seconds. Broad searches can take 10-30+ minutes; for long jobs, poll every 60-120 seconds. Do NOT call this tool in a tight loop. Stop polling when status is `completed` or `failed`. Treat `submitted`, `analyzing`, `fetching`, `clustering`, and `enriching` as active states and continue polling. You don't need to wait for completion to pull results. Partial results are available during `enriching` — call pull_results after ~2 minutes, then poll status every 30-60 seconds and pull again for fresher results. Do not stop pulling just because an intermediate pull is empty/unchanged. Use `progress_validated` vs `candidate_records` to track whether more results may still appear (`progress_validated < candidate_records`). If transport/session fails, resume using the same `job_id`.
