Instructions

This skill executes a sequence to change an object's temperature by placing it in a specific receptacle (e.g., fridge for cooling, microwave for heating) and then relocating it to a final target location.

1. Input Validation & Planning

• Inputs Required: The object identifier (e.g., bread 1) and the temperature_receptacle identifier (e.g., fridge 1 for cooling, microwave 1 for heating). The final target_receptacle (e.g., diningtable 1) is also required.
• Verify the provided object and receptacles exist in the agent's current observation. If not, the agent must first navigate to locate them.
• Plan the sequence: Locate object -> Pick up object -> Navigate to temperature receptacle -> Open it (if closed) -> Place object inside -> Close receptacle (optional, based on environment feedback) -> Navigate to target receptacle -> Place object there.

2. Execution Sequence

Follow this core logic. Use deterministic scripts for error-prone steps (see scripts/).

1. Acquire Object: go to the object's location, then take {object} from {recep}.
2. Apply Temperature Effect:

• go to {temperature_receptacle}.
• If the receptacle is reported as "closed", open {temperature_receptacle}.
• put {object} in/on {temperature_receptacle}.
• (Optional) close {temperature_receptacle} if the environment or task logic suggests it (e.g., maintaining fridge temperature).

1. Deliver Object: go to {target_receptacle}, then put {object} in/on {target_receptacle}.

3. Error Handling & Observations

• If an action results in "Nothing happened", consult the troubleshooting guide in references/troubleshooting.md.
• Always verify the state change after each action (e.g., "You pick up...", "You open...", "You put...").
• If the object is not at the expected location, pause execution and re-scan the environment.

4. Example

Task: "Cool some bread and put it on the diningtable."

Input: object: bread 1, temperature_receptacle: fridge 1, target_receptacle: diningtable 1

Sequence:

1. go to countertop 1 → Observation: "You are at countertop 1. You see bread 1, ..."
2. take bread 1 from countertop 1 → Observation: "You pick up the bread 1 from the countertop 1."
3. go to fridge 1 → Observation: "You are at fridge 1."
4. cool bread 1 with fridge 1 → Observation: "You cool the bread 1 using the fridge 1."
5. go to diningtable 1 → Observation: "You are at diningtable 1."
6. put bread 1 in/on diningtable 1 → Observation: "You put the bread 1 in/on the diningtable 1."

Output: The bread 1 is cooled and placed on the diningtable 1. Task complete.

5. Completion

The skill is complete when the object has been placed into the temperature_receptacle and subsequently placed onto the target_receptacle. Confirm the final observation states the object is on the target.
