REST APIPersons

GET /v1/persons/{per_id}/overview — the composed player overview: identity, current team, capabilities, season stats, and a capped context-rich game log, in one read.

CDN-friendly by design: the successful response carries [PERSON_OVERVIEW_CACHE_CONTROL] (public, max-age=300, s-maxage=900, stale-while-revalidate=3600) because the statshawk-web public marketing pages and consumer popups sit behind a CDN — the overview is deliberately cache-friendly and slightly stale-tolerant, unlike the rest of the read surface. The header is attached to the built [Response] here (the same handler-owned-header pattern as the team-logo asset proxy); the ApiResponse envelope is untouched.
