+**Action needed** lists what will not fix itself, such as a model about to be
+retired, grouped by the connection it comes from, since one cause usually
+reaches every model there. Each model is one line: its state, the provider's
+own words for the error (whole on hover), and Retry (one call; an answer
+clears the alert) and Retire. A group of two or more has Retry all and Retire
+all; a connection held because every model on it fails says so above its
+models, with any link the provider gave. Automatic retirements from the last
+week are folded at the end, each with Restore. Its count sits beside it in the
+sidebar, and At a glance opens on one line saying what is waiting and how
+soon. An alert whose models have all been retired goes at once. A model that
+is out of quota is not counting down: days the bench held its calls back until
+a stated reset, an account's shared free quota was spent, or the provider said
+the model's free quota is used up, pause its clock, and while it is still out
+of quota no countdown shows. One refused again after the short wait it named
+is failing, and keeps counting.
