These small utility drones operate in coordinated groups to diagnose basic faults, weave minor repairs into existing Forerunner structures, and retune [[hard light]] structural elements. Vast numbers of Constructor Sentinels may cooperate with [[Strato-Sentinel]]s to complete large-scale repair operations.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P327}} For the purpose of repair, the Constructor's primary tool is its small reconstitution emitter. The beams fired from the reconstitution emitters can be used to interact with Forerunner technology, allowing them to open [[Cryptum]]s{{Ref/Level|Id=Guardians|H5G|Guardians}} or lower the shields on [[piston]]s. The latter functionality allows the Constructor Sentinels to access the tunnel networks built within [[Sentinel Wall]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|sacred icon}}{{Ref/Map|Id=Isolation|H3|Isolation}} Although low in power output, one of these beams can cause harm if an organism if its crosses the beam's path.{{Ref/Reuse|sacred icon}} | These small utility drones operate in coordinated groups to diagnose basic faults, weave minor repairs into existing Forerunner structures, and retune [[hard light]] structural elements.

One or more Constructors will often be summoned if something within their facility is damaged. Once attracted, they appear to require little prompting to follow someone seeking their assistance. In one instance, a member of a [[Spartan-IV]] [[Fireteam Osiris|fireteam]] simply had to state that they had a task for a Constructor to get it to follow them, with no other obvious methods of coercion being used.{{Ref/Reuse|EnemyLines}} Constructors can be programmed for other tasks, such as awakening a [[Guardian Custode]], with little difficulty, being reprogrammed within minutes.{{Ref/Level|Id=BeforeTheStorm|H5G|Before the Storm}} | One or more Constructors will often be summoned if something within their facility is damaged.
