Scienceworld Living Entity Identifier

Skill: Living Entity Identifier

Purpose

Use this skill when the task involves finding, focusing on, or interacting with a "living thing," "biological entity," "organism," or similar target. The skill analyzes the textual observation of a room to identify candidate objects that are likely to be living or contain life (e.g., eggs, plants, animals).

Core Logic

1. Trigger: The task description mentions a living entity.
2. Analyze: Parse the current room's observation text.
3. Identify: Flag objects from a known list of living entity indicators (see references/living_indicators.md).
4. Output: Select the most suitable candidate and formulate the next action (typically focus on [TARGET] or examine [TARGET]).

Primary Workflow

1. Look Around: First, use look around to get the room's observation text.
2. Run Analysis: Process the observation using the logic in scripts/analyze_observation.py.
3. Execute Focus: If a candidate is found, perform focus on [IDENTIFIED_OBJECT].
4. Handle Inventory/Transport: If the task requires moving the entity, proceed with pick up and move actions to the specified destination.

Key Rules

• Prioritize explicit living things (e.g., "dove egg," "giant tortoise") over ambiguous substances (e.g., "air," "water").
• If the initial room lacks candidates, teleport to rooms with higher biological likelihood (e.g., outside, greenhouse, bedroom).
• The focus on action is critical for signaling task progress. Use it immediately after identification.
