It sounds like each "MEP" (mission extension pod) once attached is its own fully autonomous satellite? How big is each MEP? Like, a mini fridge?

Since the mission is designed to attach one and then leave to go to another satellite that needs servicing?

Sort of mini-fridge sized. They take over attitude control and propulsion for satellites that are low on fuel.

Yes.
