Alfworld Object Heater

What it does

When your agent uses it

• You are holding an object that requires heating and need to navigate to and operate the heating appliance

Example prompts

• “Use the alfworld-object-heater skill to heat a specified object using an available heating appliance (e.g., microwave, stoveburner)”
• “/alfworld-object-heater”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Navigate: go to {appliance} (e.g., go to microwave 1)
2. 2Check state: If observation says appliance is closed, execute open {appliance} -- verify observation confirms it is now open
3. 3Heat: heat {object} with {appliance} -- verify observation confirms "You heat the {object}"
4. 4(Optional) Place: If the task requires it, navigate to the destination and place the heated object

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c527136. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • go

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md.

  From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

• Credentials

  Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

  From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Alfworld Object Heater loads about 480 tokens when it runs, and up to ~963 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 180 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~81

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~480

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~963

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

name

alfworld-object-heater

description

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.

Thought: I need to heat the potato. I'll go to the microwave.
Action: go to microwave 1
Observation: The microwave 1 is closed.
Action: open microwave 1
Observation: You open the microwave 1. The microwave 1 is open. In it, you see nothing.
Action: heat potato 1 with microwave 1
Observation: You heat the potato 1 using the microwave 1.
