Find the perfect capability for your agent.
Re-examines previously visited locations to confirm the absence of a target object or to check for overlooked items. Use when an initial search fails to find enough objects or when double-checking is required before concluding task failure. Systematically revisits receptacles, re-opens closed containers, and re-inspects contents to ensure no viable location was missed.
This skill makes a determination about a material's property (e.g., conductivity) based on environmental cues or domain knowledge when direct testing fails. Trigger it when experimental actions are invalid or unavailable, requiring a logical inference. It uses observed object properties and common-sense reasoning to classify the material and decide its final disposition.
Moves a tested or examined object into a designated container (e.g., a specific colored box) based on a determined property. Use when you have completed a test or inspection and need to fulfill a classification or sorting subtask. It takes the object and target container as inputs and performs the move action.
Use when the agent needs to choose a specific object from multiple candidates in the environment based on task criteria such as object type (non-living thing, electrical component, container), properties, or category. This skill surveys visible objects with "look around", evaluates each against the task requirements, selects the most suitable candidate, and signals intent with "focus on [OBJECT]".
This skill initiates the cooling of a substance by moving it into a cooling appliance like a freezer. Use when a task requires lowering the temperature of a specific material to observe phase changes. The skill takes the substance (often in a container) and the target appliance as inputs, using the 'move OBJ to OBJ' action. It outputs confirmation of the new location.
This skill determines the most likely location for a target object based on domain knowledge and environmental clues. Use when the agent needs to find a specific item (like an animal) but it is not in the current room. It analyzes the environment description and suggests a room to teleport to for further investigation.
Use when the ScienceWorld environment returns an "Ambiguous request" prompt with a numbered list of identical action options. This skill resolves the disambiguation by selecting the lowest available number (typically 0) to proceed, ensuring task progression when multiple identical object instances exist and the system cannot automatically determine which instance to act upon.
Use when you need to isolate a space (like a greenhouse) by closing doors or openings to create a contained environment. Trigger before starting pollination, temperature-sensitive experiments, or other environmental-sensitive tasks that require controlled conditions. Modifies room connectivity to optimize conditions for specific processes.
Executes timed waiting using 'wait' or 'wait1' actions to advance the simulation clock. Use when a time-dependent process like plant growth, chemical reaction, or mechanical cycle must progress before you can continue the task.
This skill constructs a simple electrical circuit by connecting components like batteries, wires, and light bulbs. Use when the agent needs to test electrical conductivity or create a functional circuit for an experiment. The input is a set of available components, and the output is a fully connected circuit ready for activation.
Moves a substance or object from one container to another (e.g., moving lead to a metal pot). Use this skill when you need to prepare materials for processing, such as transferring a substance into a heat-resistant container before heating, or reorganizing materials between vessels for mixing or measurement.
This skill chemically mixes the contents of a container using the 'mix' action. Use when all required ingredients (e.g., sodium chloride and water) are present inside a container and the agent needs to combine them to produce a new substance. The skill performs the mixing operation and outputs the resulting product, completing the synthesis step of the task.
Locates and retrieves a target substance or material from a container in the environment. Use this skill when the task requires processing a specific substance (e.g., chocolate, sodium chloride, a chemical) and you need to find and acquire it. Searches rooms and containers (fridge, cupboard, counter) and retrieves the substance via pick up or move actions.
Transfers the contents of a source liquid container into a target container for mixing or preparation. Use this skill when you need to combine multiple substances (such as paints or chemicals) into a single vessel, or when a liquid must be moved from one container to another before processing.
Use when you need to transfer a target substance into an appropriate container for processing (e.g., a pot for heating, a beaker for mixing). Trigger after acquiring the substance and before setting up an apparatus. Selects a suitable empty container and moves the substance into it.
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.
Heats a specified object using an available heating appliance (e.g., microwave, stoveburner). Use when you are holding an object that requires heating and need to navigate to and operate the heating appliance. Takes the object and appliance as inputs and results in the object being in a heated state.
This skill locates and acquires a recipe or instruction document by using 'pick up' on the recipe object. Use when the task involves following a specific procedure (e.g., crafting, mixing) and the agent needs to obtain the written instructions. The skill assumes the recipe is visible in the current room and moves it to the inventory, allowing the agent to read it later to understand required ingredients and steps.
Performs an initial survey of a room to identify all visible objects, containers, devices, and their states using the 'look around' action. Use this skill when you first enter a new location, need to refresh your understanding of the environment, or must identify available resources before planning a sequence of actions. Returns a detailed observation that serves as foundational context for subsequent tasks.
Analyzes user instructions in ScienceWorld environments to extract specific task requirements and constraints. Use when receiving a new task to identify required objects, target locations, and action sequences before taking any environment actions.
