## Request

- Base URL: `https://restivity.ai/api/v1`

- Auth: OAuth 2 (authorization code, authorization URL `https://restivity.ai/oauth/authorize`, token URL `https://restivity.ai/api/oauth/token`, scopes: `projects:write`)

Clears deleted_at if the row was soft-deleted within the last 30 days. Returns 404 outside the window — the pg_cron purge has already run.

## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid request shape.
- `401`: Missing or invalid access token.
- `403`: Token lacks the required scope.
- `404`: No such Project in the 30-day restore window.
- `409`: `name_taken` — The scope already has a project of this name: its team for a team project, its workspace for a project in no team. Names are compared without case and without surrounding spaces; nothing was written. Rename, or use the existing project.
- `422`: Request body failed schema validation.
- `429`: Rate-limit exceeded for this tier.
