What it does

Scienceworld Growth Focuser is an agent skill from zjunlp/SkillNet. Use when you have planted a seed or need to track a plant's growth stage (sprouting, flowering, reproduction). Applies the 'focus on' action to a specific plant or biological entity to signal intent and monitor its development. Trigger after planting or when you need to observe life cycle progression in the ScienceWorld environment.

Its SKILL.md is about 840 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/trajectory_analysis.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Create, Evaluate, and Connect AI Skills. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • You have planted a seed
  • Need to track a plants growth stage (sprouting
  • You need to observe life cycle progression in the ScienceWorld environment

Example prompts

  • “s growth stage (sprouting, flowering, reproduction). Applies the”
  • “/scienceworld-growth-focuser”

Workflow steps

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

  1. After Planting: You have just placed a seed or seedling into a suitable growth medium (e.g., soil with water).
  2. Stage Monitoring: You need to check or trigger a progression in the plant's life cycle (e.g., from seed to sprout, sprout to mature plant…
  3. Intent Signaling: The task requires you to explicitly indicate which entity you are observing or nurturing.

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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Scienceworld Growth Focuser loads about 836 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 442 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~836
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.3k

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

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

description
Use when you have planted a seed or need to track a plant's growth stage (sprouting, flowering, reproduction). Applies the 'focus on' action to a specific plant or biological entity to signal intent and monitor its development. Trigger after planting or when you need to observe life cycle progression in the ScienceWorld environment.

Skill: Growth Focuser

Purpose

Apply the focus on action to a specific biological entity (e.g., a planted seed or growing plant) to signal your intent to monitor its development. This action is often a prerequisite for the environment to process growth stages or trigger life cycle progression events.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  1. After Planting: You have just placed a seed or seedling into a suitable growth medium (e.g., soil with water).
  2. Stage Monitoring: You need to check or trigger a progression in the plant's life cycle (e.g., from seed to sprout, sprout to mature plant, flowering, or reproduction).
  3. Intent Signaling: The task requires you to explicitly indicate which entity you are observing or nurturing.

Core Instruction

  1. Identify the Target: Locate the specific plant or seed you intend to focus on. Ensure it is in a valid state for growth (e.g., planted in soil with water).
  2. Execute Focus: Use the action: focus on <PLANT_OBJECT> [in <CONTAINER>].
    • Replace <PLANT_OBJECT> with the exact name of the biological entity (e.g., avocado seed).
    • Use the optional [in <CONTAINER>] clause if the object is inside another object (e.g., avocado seed in flower pot 1). This is crucial for disambiguation.
  3. Confirm & Wait: Upon successful focus, you will receive a confirmation. Biological growth requires time. Use wait actions strategically after focusing to allow the simulated environment to process development stages.

Key Considerations

  • Disambiguation: If multiple identical objects exist, the environment may prompt you to choose. Always specify the container (e.g., in flower pot 1) to avoid this.
  • Prerequisites: The focus on action typically follows preparatory steps like teleport to <location>, pick up <item>, and move <seed> to <pot>.
  • Patience is Required: Growth is not instantaneous. The focus on action signals intent, but you must follow it with wait actions to observe results.

Example

Scenario: You need to grow an avocado plant from seed to maturity.

  1. You have already moved avocado seed into flower pot 1 which contains soil and water.
  2. Run focus on avocado seed in flower pot 1 — output: "You focus on the avocado seed."
  3. Run wait — the environment processes one time step.
  4. Run focus on avocado seed in flower pot 1 again — output may now show: "avocado sprout" indicating growth progression.
  5. Continue alternating focus on and wait until the plant reaches the desired life stage (sprout, mature plant, flowering, reproduction).

Note: Always include the in <CONTAINER> clause when multiple pots or seeds exist to avoid disambiguation prompts.

Quick Reference

Trigger Condition: Seed/Plant is in a growth-ready state. Primary Action: focus on <PLANT_OBJECT> [in <CONTAINER>] Next Steps: Use wait to allow time for growth progression.
