Huragok meet the institutions of Warhammer's Imperium

What would happen if Halo's Huragok appeared on Warhammer 40,000 Imperial ships and were welcomed rather than treated as xenos?

Their repair skills would be useful, but the premise is disputed: some Imperial factions would exploit or conceal them, while others would try to destroy them.

The premise asks that Huragok be welcomed aboard Imperial ships, but the participants disagree over whether the Imperium would honour that condition. Some expect them to be classified as aliens, artificial intelligence or heretical technology. An alternative is that the Mechanicus would officially purge them while secretly taking them into its forges. Huragok's instinctive ability to understand, assemble and repair technology would make them useful, and some forge worlds are described as willing to overlook doctrinal offences while their obligations are met. Different Mechanicus factions would therefore use or destroy them, preventing a single uniform outcome.
