Stop forgetting to repair before you go in in the first place? I can understand forgetting every once in a while, but forgetting so often that you feel SE needs to step in and help you? Sounds like a personal problem to me and one that has two easy solutions: stop forgetting to repair so often or suck it up and level your crafters so you can do it yourself whenever and wherever you want.

Forgetting isn't a conscious choice, so easier said than done.
So then make it a habit. I've conditioned myself to automatically check my equipment whenever I enter an area with a mender. If stuff it low I'll repair the stuff I have the crafters for and then I'll go to the NPC for the other items whose class I haven't finished leveling yet. None of my equipment ever drops below 70% unless I spend a long time wiping in a single duty.
