What it does

Scienceworld Process Monitor is an agent skill from zjunlp/SkillNet. This skill observes the state of an active apparatus and its contents to track progress. Use when you need to periodically check for state changes (e.g., solid to liquid) during a heating or reaction process. The skill uses 'look at' or 'examine' actions on the apparatus and substance.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/state_transitions.md`).

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

When your agent uses it

  • You need to periodically check for state changes (e.g.
  • Solid to liquid) during a heating
  • Reaction process

Example prompts

  • “look at”
  • “examine”
  • “/scienceworld-process-monitor”

Workflow steps

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

  1. look at — verify it is active and contains the target substance.
  2. examine — check its current state description.
  3. Compare the observed state to the previous state. If changed (e.g., "chocolate" to "liquid chocolate"), proceed to the next task step.
  4. If no change, use wait then repeat from step 1.

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 Process Monitor loads about 377 tokens when it runs, and up to ~716 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 172 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~79
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~377
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~716

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.

This skill observes the state of an active apparatus and its contents to track progress. Use when you need to periodically check for state changes (e.g., solid to liquid) during a heating or reaction process. The skill uses 'look at' or 'examine' actions on the apparatus and substance.

Process Monitoring Protocol

When to Use

Activate when an apparatus (stove, burner) is active and you need to check whether a substance has undergone a state change (e.g., solid to liquid, liquid to gas).

Procedure

  1. look at <APPARATUS> — verify it is active and contains the target substance.
    • If apparatus is not active, use activate <APPARATUS> first.
    • If substance is missing, check inventory or nearby containers.
  2. examine <SUBSTANCE> — check its current state description.
  3. Compare the observed state to the previous state. If changed (e.g., "chocolate" to "liquid chocolate"), proceed to the next task step.
  4. If no change, use wait then repeat from step 1.

Run every few steps during an active process. This skill only observes — it does not modify the apparatus or handle substances.

Example

Task: Monitor chocolate melting on a stove.

  1. look at stove — observation: "a stove (activated), containing: chocolate"
  2. examine chocolate — observation: "chocolate"
  3. No change yet. wait
  4. examine chocolate — observation: "liquid chocolate"
  5. State change detected. Proceed to take a temperature measurement.
