Clockwork Pit crew
Steam starts to pour from Allister's frame as compartments all across his body opens to reveal a number of bronze wind up mouse dolls. These dolls explode forth with speed seeming to be rocket propelled and begin to work on fixing the target with little welding tools and sometimes wedging them selves into place to replace parts. All the while Allister is managing the crew with a Etch-A-Sketch computer screen that flips out from his right arm.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Infinite Loop Nanite Core
POWAH OVERWHELMIINNNNGGG
A little electronic ball, when taken out and placed on an object, the ball uses the body energy to create a infinite cycle of feed for the nanites. Which will spread out from the ball and repair the object. On the flipside though, if it detects the object is in full working function, just missing fuel, it will absorb gravitational energy waves and latent signals, such as radio signals, xrays, UV rays, etc and turn it into a source of fuel for the machine. Though due to such exposure and change, the nanites within the machine will die out in 24 hours, requiring a re-establishment.

ᛐᛒ - Rune of Repair
I can patch that up, I think.
Harry must use the tool (In the case of his uncle's runed multitool, probably the knife or metal file from it) to etch the same bindrune into an object. This takes him about 30 seconds. At the end, he focuses his mind to infuse the new rune precisely with power and intent and it begins to faintly glow. If he has carved and infused the rune properly it will become a natural part of the object (embossed, stamped, or part of the design of the paint or finish, but appearing as though it belongs) and the object will be restored to a proper state and functionality. Failure will see the rune harmlessly spark out and remain a crude carving.
