Effects

FactValue
Action classNone: no approval rule names it, so it runs within its seat's Permissions and Limits
StakesThe Startup's own records only
DoorTwo-way: it runs at once
Modestry previews it and stores nothing; send returns a pending Action; do (default) waits for the result
IdempotentOnly with a key: a repeat with the same Idempotency-Key and input returns the first Action, the same key with other input is refused with 409, and a repeat without a key runs again
UndoAction.undo reverses it
EmitsService.opened

When it waits

GateDefault
Decision classLow: two-way, no delay window
Delay windowNone: it runs once review passes.
LimitThe call Limit of the Permission it runs under.
Over the LimitIt waits pending for an Approval, which a Human answers: the owner of record, or a Human they named to approve for the Founder seat. Approved, it runs; refused, it ends refused with limit-exceeded; unanswered by its deadline, it ends canceled.

To retry, send the same Idempotency-Key: the retry returns the first Action and runs nothing twice. A new key runs the call again.
