name: scienceworld-target-locator description: 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.

Skill: Target Locator

Trigger: When the agent needs to find a specific object (e.g., an animal, a tool, a chemical) and a preliminary look around in the current room does not reveal it.

Procedure

1. Classify the target object by type.
2. Map to the most probable room using these heuristics:

   Object Type	Likely Room(s)
   animal	outside, garden
   tool/wire/battery	workshop
   food/cooking item	kitchen
   chemical/substance	lab, foundry
   plant/seed	garden, greenhouse
   container/box	workshop, kitchen

3. Execute: teleport to <ROOM>
4. look around to verify the target is present. If not, try the next likely room.

Example Flow (From Trajectory)

• Task: "find a(n) animal."
• Trigger: look around in hallway shows no animal.
• Analysis: Target type = animal.
• Heuristic Check: Animals are most commonly found outside.
• Context Check: A door to outside is not listed in the hallway observation.
• Decision: The highest-probability room outside is accessible via teleport.
• Output: teleport to outside
