--- name: scienceworld-device-activator description: Activates a device (e.g., blast furnace, stove) to initiate a process like heating. Use this skill when you have placed materials inside a device and need to start its operation. Takes a device name as input and outputs a confirmation of activation, enabling tasks that require energy input or material processing to progress. --- # Skill: Device Activator ## Purpose Activate a device (turn it on, start it, fire it up) to begin its operation — typically heating, processing, or powering a task step. ## Core Workflow 1. **Verify Contents:** `look at <DEVICE_NAME>` to confirm materials are placed inside. 2. **Check State:** Observation should show "which is turned off" or "which is deactivated." 3. **Activate:** `activate <DEVICE_NAME>` 4. **Verify Activation:** `look at <DEVICE_NAME>` — confirm it now reads "turned on" or "activated." 5. **Monitor (if needed):** Use measurement tools (e.g., `use thermometer on <MATERIAL>`) to track progress. 6. **Deactivate When Done:** `deactivate <DEVICE_NAME>` ## Key Actions | Action | Purpose | |--------|---------| | `look at <DEVICE>` | Verify contents and device state | | `activate <DEVICE>` | Turn on / start the device | | `deactivate <DEVICE>` | Turn off the device when done | | `use TOOL on OBJ` | Monitor material state during processing | ## Example **Task:** Melt lead in a blast furnace. 1. `look at blast furnace` — confirms: metal pot with lead inside, furnace is turned off 2. `activate blast furnace` 3. `look at blast furnace` — confirms: "which is turned on" 4. `use thermometer on lead` — monitor temperature 5. `look at blast furnace` — observe: "a substance called liquid lead" (melting complete) 6. `deactivate blast furnace` ## Important Notes * Most devices are pre-opened. Do not use `open` or `close` unless the observation indicates a closed door. * Always verify activation succeeded before proceeding to the next task step.

- alfworld-appliance-navigatorNavigates the agent to a target appliance (microwave, stove, fridge, or sinkbasin) needed for object processing. Use when you are holding an object that needs heating, cooling, or cleaning and must move to the correct appliance station. Identifies the required appliance from the task context and executes the movement action.
- alfworld-appliance-preparerPrepares a household appliance (microwave, oven, toaster, fridge) for use by ensuring it is in the correct open/closed state. Use when the agent needs to heat, cool, or cook an item and must first open or close the appliance before placing an object inside. Takes an appliance identifier as input and outputs a confirmation that the appliance is ready for the next action.
- alfworld-clean-objectCleans a specified object using an appropriate cleaning receptacle (e.g., sinkbasin). Use when a task requires an object to be in a clean state (e.g., "clean potato", "wash apple") before proceeding. Navigates to the cleaning location, performs the clean action, and confirms the object is now clean.
- alfworld-device-operatorOperates a device or appliance (like a desklamp, microwave, or fridge) to interact with another object. Use when the task requires using a tool on a target item (e.g., "look at laptop under the desklamp", "heat potato with microwave"). Locates both the device and target object, co-locates them, and executes the appropriate use action (toggle, heat, cool, or clean).
- alfworld-environment-scannerPerforms an initial scan of the ALFWorld environment to identify all visible objects and receptacles. Use when you first enter an environment and need to build a mental map for task planning. Processes raw observation text into a structured list of entities, categorizing them as objects or receptacles.
- alfworld-goal-interpreterParses the natural language task goal to extract actionable sub-objectives and required objects. Trigger this skill whenever a new task is assigned to break down complex instructions into clear, sequential targets. It interprets phrases like 'look at X under Y' to identify target objects (pillow), reference objects (desklamp), and spatial relationships (under).
- alfworld-heat-object-with-applianceUses a heating appliance (microwave, stoveburner, oven) to apply heat to a specified object. Use when the task requires warming or cooking an item (e.g., "heat some egg", "warm the mug") and a heating appliance is available. Takes the object name and appliance name as input and outputs the object in a heated state, ready for placement at the task's target location.
- alfworld-inventory-managementUse when the agent must collect and track multiple instances of the same object type in ALFWorld (e.g., "put two cellphone in bed"). This skill maintains a count of collected versus needed objects, guides systematic searching through receptacles, and ensures each found object is placed at the target before searching for the next.
- alfworld-locate-target-objectNavigates to a suspected location and identifies a target object. Use when your goal requires finding a specific object (e.g., "potato", "plate") and its location is not immediately known. Moves to a relevant receptacle (like a fridge or cabinet), checks its contents, and outputs the object's location or confirms its absence.
- alfworld-location-navigatorMoves the agent to a specified receptacle or object location within the Alfworld environment. Use this skill when the agent needs to physically approach a target to inspect or interact with it, such as when checking an object's state or preparing for pickup. The skill takes a target location name as input and executes the 'go to' action, resulting in the agent being positioned at the destination for subsequent operations.
