COMPATIBILITY
Making him moddable needs Fallout 4 Automatron DLC.
"Handy Hats and Armors" (Current version 1. 31) by -Ren- will hide Torso and Legs mods on any Vanilla Ms. Nany / Mr. Handy / Mr. Gutsy NPC's including Codsworth because -Ren- deleted "ap_Bot_BotCore" and "ap_Bot_BotLegs" keywords from APPR record entry in the Mr. Handy Race which is needed by DLC Automatron. Thanks to fernicar for reporting me this!
