alfworld-object-state-modifier
This skill uses an appliance to change the state of an object (e.g., cooling, heating, cleaning). It should be triggered when the task requires altering an object's temperature or cleanliness using a specific device (like cooling with a fridge or heating with a microwave). The skill requires the object, the target state, and the appliance as inputs, and executes the corresponding modifier action (e.g., 'cool X with Y').
Best use case
alfworld-object-state-modifier is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Teams using alfworld-object-state-modifier should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Instructions
## When to Use
Use this skill when the task requires you to **change the state of an object** using a specific household appliance. The primary actions are:
- **Cool** an object (e.g., with a fridge).
- **Heat** an object (e.g., with a microwave or stove).
- **Clean** an object (e.g., with a sink).
## Core Procedure
1. **Locate & Acquire Object:** First, navigate to and pick up the target object.
2. **Navigate to Appliance:** Go to the appliance required for the state change (e.g., `fridge 1`, `microwave 1`).
3. **Prepare Appliance (if needed):** Some appliances require preparation (e.g., opening a fridge or microwave door). Perform the necessary `open` or `toggle` action.
4. **Execute State Change:** Perform the core modifier action: `cool {obj} with {appliance}`, `heat {obj} with {appliance}`, or `clean {obj} with {appliance}`.
5. **Complete Task:** After the state is changed, proceed with the next task step (e.g., placing the object elsewhere).
## Key Considerations
- **Invalid Actions:** If the environment responds with "Nothing happened," your action was invalid. Consult the `references/appliance_interaction_guide.md` for troubleshooting.
- **Appliance State:** Always check if an appliance is open/closed/on/off before attempting the modifier action.
- **Object Holding:** You must be holding the target object (`{obj}`) before executing the state change action.
## Inputs Required
- `{obj}`: The specific object identifier (e.g., `tomato 1`).
- `{target_state}`: The desired state change (`cool`, `heat`, or `clean`).
- `{appliance}`: The specific appliance identifier (e.g., `fridge 1`).
## Output Action
The skill's final output is a single, formatted action string: `{target_state} {obj} with {appliance}`.Related Skills
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.
alfworld-appliance-navigator
This skill navigates the agent to a target appliance (like a microwave, stove, or fridge) needed for a task. It should be triggered when the agent has an object that requires processing (heating, cooling, cleaning) and needs to move to the appropriate station. The skill identifies the appliance from the environment and executes the movement action.
class-based-state-management
Enforces the use of classes for complex state management (state machines) in Svelte components. Applies specifically to `.svelte.ts` files.
alfworld-object-locator
This skill scans the current environment observation to identify the presence and location of a target object needed for a task. It should be triggered when the agent's goal requires an object that is not currently in the agent's inventory, and the observation does not explicitly state where the object is. The skill analyzes the textual observation to find receptacles that likely contain the target, based on common sense or domain knowledge (e.g., a 'dishsponge' might be on a 'cart'), and outputs the identified target receptacle location for navigation.

alfworld-receptacle-preparer
This skill verifies and prepares a target receptacle for receiving an object. It is triggered before placing an item into a receptacle (e.g., a garbage can) to ensure the receptacle is accessible and suitable. The skill involves navigating to the receptacle, observing its state (e.g., open/closed, occupied), and performing any necessary preparatory actions like opening it, resulting in a ready-to-use target location.
user-state-debugging
Expert knowledge on debugging user account issues, diagnostic scripts (inspect-user-state.js), fix scripts (fix-user-billing-state.js, reset-user-onboarding.js), onboarding problems, billing sync issues, and Clerk vs database mismatches. Use this skill when user asks about "user stuck", "onboarding broken", "billing out of sync", "debug user", "reset user", or "user state".
