Scienceworld Target Locator

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.

Core Logic

1. Analyze the Target: Classify the target object based on its type (e.g., animal, tool, container, chemical).
2. Consult Domain Knowledge: Use the bundled reference (target_location_heuristics.md) to map the object type to the most probable room(s) in the ScienceWorld environment.
3. Evaluate Current Context: Briefly review the recent look around observation. If doors to high-probability rooms are visible and open, prioritize them.
4. Output Decision: Output a single, clear teleport to LOC action command, choosing the most promising location to search next.

Primary Instruction: Do not overthink. Rely on the heuristics. The goal is to make an efficient, educated guess to continue the search.

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
