Nanite swarms reconstruct hull damage at the molecular level. Your ship comes back subtly different but objectively better.

Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedNanites flow like liquid thought, disassembling and rebuilding with alien precision. Repaired sections emerge stronger, lighter, subtly uncanny.
StarvedToday, though, nanite swarms lose cohesion, rebuilding damage in crude approximations. Repaired sections feel brittle, misaligned, structurally questionable.
Upgrade Chain
Reconstruction Matrix has no upgrade path — it is built once, at this level.
Lore
The nanites disassemble damaged material atom by atom and rebuild it according to the Voidborn's notion of 'optimal structure.' Captains sometimes report that repaired sections are slightly harder, slightly lighter, or slightly the wrong color. The Voidborn consider complaints a failure of imagination.
