Mended

Mended is a small NeoForge mod for Minecraft 26.1 - 26.1.2 that repairs your gear when you pick up XP orbs.

The idea is simple: instead of needing Mending on every single item, XP can be used to repair damaged tools, armor, and other eligible items automatically. By default, it only checks equipped items, but you can configure it to repair inventory items too.

When an XP orb is picked up, Mended takes a configurable percentage of that XP and turns it into durability repair. Any XP that does not get used for repair is still given to the player like normal.

This is meant to cut down on the boring villager reroll grind without completely removing durability as a mechanic.
