Description

Instead of using UUIDs to pull a project (ban UUIDs!), we should be able to use the project name (the safe slug name.

openfn pull my-project

What do we need to do to get this to work?

I think it's up to the provisioner to track it. Maybe it need an argument, like --name or --uuid . But this feels like something we should be able to detect

Research direction

Start at the CLI entry point for openfn pull and trace how the provisioner currently resolves UUIDs. Run the existing pull command and inspect how project identifiers are passed through; done means a safe project slug such as my-project can select the project without requiring a UUID, with the identifier behavior covered by tests.
