Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
`thing`	Thing	required	The deleted Thing.

Outputs

Output	Type	Required	Description
`thing`	Thing	required	The Thing, back in every list and query it left.

Effects

Fact	Value
Action class	None: it runs within its seat's Limits
Door	Two-way: it runs at once
Modes	`try` previews it and stores nothing; `send` returns a pending Action; `do` (default) waits for the result
Idempotent	With a key: a repeat with the same `Idempotency-Key` returns the first Action, and a repeat without one runs again
Undo	Action.undo reverses it
Emits	`Thing.restored`

Refuses when the Thing is not deleted.
Nothing is ever purged, so every deleted Thing can be restored.

Refuses when

Check	Error	Fix	Then call
The key is valid, but its scopes do not allow this operation.	`forbidden`	Use a key whose scopes cover the operation, or ask an owner of the namespace to grant them.	None.
The Thing is not deleted	`refused`	Clear what the check names, then call it again.	None.

When it waits

Gate	Default
Decision class	Low: two-way, nothing at stake
Delay window	None: it runs once review passes.
Limit	The call Limit of the Permission it runs under.
Over the Limit	It waits `pending` for an Approval from the Founder. Approved, it runs; refused, it ends `refused` with `limit-exceeded`; unanswered by its deadline, it ends `canceled`.
