name: scienceworld-environment-scanner
description: This skill performs an initial observation of the current location to identify available objects, containers, and connections to other rooms. Use this when starting a new task in ScienceWorld to gather situational awareness, especially when the agent needs to understand its surroundings before taking action. It outputs a detailed room description, listing visible items and accessible doors.

# Instructions

Execute this skill when you first arrive at a location in ScienceWorld or when you need to refresh your understanding of the current environment.

## Core Action
1.  **Always begin by using the `look around` action.** This is the primary and mandatory step of this skill. It provides the foundational observation of the room.

## Output Interpretation
After executing `look around`, analyze the observation. Your analysis must structure the output clearly:
*   **Current Room:** State the name of the room you are in.
*   **Visible Objects & Substances:** List all items and substances reported in the observation.
*   **Accessible Doors:** List all doors mentioned, noting their destination and whether they are open or closed.
*   **Initial Assessment:** Briefly note any items of immediate interest or relevance to your known task.

Skill	Description
alfworld-appliance-navigator	Navigates 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-preparer	Prepares 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-object	Cleans 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-operator	Operates 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-scanner	Performs 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-interpreter	Parses 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-appliance	Uses 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-management	Use 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-object	Navigates 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-navigator	Moves 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.
