Back from the Brink
Enchantment
Exile a creature card from your graveyard and pay its mana cost: Put a token onto the battlefield that's a copy of that card. Activate this ability only once any time you can cast a sorcery.

Probably not quite the recursion you are looking for but embalm, eternalize, and encore. If you are building Sedris, the Traitor King I think these abilities fit along the lines of unearth and pair well with cards like Sundial of the Infinite.
Back from the Brink is also along the same line. Although I think in terms of a Sedris deck encore would give you the most value over the others.

A card I have attempted to make work in my mono-Blue list is Back from the Brink. 'Tis a different and blue Muldrotha. It mayn't be perfect in my Hakim deck, yet this may be of use to you.
Best of luck. Enjoy eating butts and taking names.

Staring Contest: A List of Blink-Effect Cards

Nightmare Shepherd is one of the best as it adds a lot of functionality with no upfront cost and allows you to exploit sacrifice mechanics like evoke. Creating token clones with etb/ltb can easily become overpowered, especially when combined with populate. In fact I built a great ETB Roon EDH deck around it using cards like Yosei, the Morning Star, Protean Hulk and Wayfaring Temples that clone themselves. Token clone generation is amazing because it's essentially ETB blinking as a side effect. You have some cards that do it already listed under abuse but I think the mechanic is good enough and has enough viable cards that it might be worth making a new category for it.

Also some other blink type cards:

Listing the ones that specifically clone or blink artifacts in their own group might be helpful too.

Back from the Brink would do work here, even though it's pricey manawise.

Back from the Brink? first time seeing this card. i dont think i need it as mimeoplasm is a recursion card himself. the best tutor in this deck is Intuition, using intuition ill grab Underrealm Lich + Necrologia + Torrential Gearhulk, no matter what cards the opponent chooses to go in the graveyard i still can cast all 3 cards using mimeoplasm. its a 3 card tutor for 3 mana

Creatures having a color is already something you can break in commander, though. You can use Painter's Servant naming in your Elesh Norn deck (not that you would in this case) to give all of your opponents protection from your creatures with Absolute Law.
Additionally, Transguild Courier and Sphinx of the Guildpact both get boosts that apply to color even with no changes to the current rules. The point isn't that "this card is x color" because we can already break that in commander. The reason they're banned is because of the rule that the mana symbol appears on the card. This is the same reason that Quenchable Fire can't be run in a mono-red deck despite nothing about the card being blue.
On the point of Gyruda, Doom of Depths I will say you're not entirely wrong here, but let's not forget that Wizards has been pushing color pies and power levels a LOT lately. So to that end I would defend the card pointing to limited blue reanimation effects like Back from the Brink or Body Double. Blue has limited ability to copy or create tokens of creatures in graveyards, so the fact that this latest one is extremely limited feels like it's pushing blue, but not entirely out of context. You can only reanimate something milled with its ETB effect and only if it has an even CMC. It's possible to entirely whif on this and not get anything to reanimate, unlike similar black effects that are more or less guaranteed to bring you back something from the graveyard.

Take out: Body Double, Diluvian Primordial, Frost Titan, Identity Thief, Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir (cuz screw Teferi), Supplant Form, Back from the Brink, Volition Reins, Chromatic Lantern (cuz reasons).
Yeah so obviously you need to take out some more cards, especially to draw some cards cuz you don't have enough of that but here's a start
