description: This skill uses a thermometer on a substance to measure its temperature. It should be triggered when the agent needs to determine the temperature of a material (e.g., lead) to assess if it has reached a specific melting point or threshold. The skill requires a thermometer in inventory and a target substance, outputting the measured temperature in degrees Celsius, which is key for scientific measurement tasks.

# Skill: Temperature Measurement for Scientific Experiments

## Purpose
Measure the temperature of a target substance (e.g., a metal like lead) to determine if it has reached a specific state-change threshold, such as its melting point.

## Core Workflow
1.  **Acquire Thermometer:** Ensure a thermometer is in your inventory. If not, locate and pick one up.
2.  **Locate Target Substance:** Identify the substance to be measured (e.g., "lead"). It may be in a container.
3.  **Prepare for Heating (If Necessary):** If measuring a melting point, the substance likely needs to be heated.
    *   Transfer the substance to a heat-resistant container (e.g., a metal pot).
    *   Move the container to a heating device (e.g., a blast furnace in the foundry).
    *   Activate the heating device.
4.  **Measure Temperature:** Use the thermometer from your inventory on the target substance.
5.  **Interpret Result:** The observation will state the measured temperature in degrees Celsius. Use this value to make a decision (e.g., "above 150.0 degrees" -> focus on the red box).

## Key Actions & Observations
*   `pick up thermometer`: Acquire the essential measuring tool.
*   `move [substance] to [container]`: Prepare the sample.
*   `activate [heating device]`: Initiate the temperature change process.
*   `use thermometer in inventory on [substance]`: The primary measurement command. The observation (`the thermometer measures a temperature of X degrees celsius`) is the skill's key output.
*   Observe state changes: `a substance called lead` -> `a substance called liquid lead`.

## Bundled Logic
For a standard melting point determination task, use the bundled script `measure_melting_point.py`. It encapsulates the precise sequence for the lead experiment demonstrated in the trajectory.

## Notes
*   The skill assumes containers are open and accessible.
*   Teleportation (`teleport to [room]`) is often necessary to move between resource locations (e.g., kitchen, foundry).
*   If `use thermometer` fails, check the substance's state via `look at [container]` and ensure the thermometer is in your inventory.

SkillDescription
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.
