Skill: Instruction Reader

Purpose

Read and parse a document (recipe, note, or instructions) from your inventory to extract the information needed to execute the current task.

When to Use

  • After picking up a recipe, note, or readable document.
  • When the task requires following written instructions (e.g., mixing chemicals, assembling components).
  • Before starting a multi-step procedure that depends on written directions.

Core Workflow

  1. Read the Document: read OBJ on the document in your inventory.
  2. Extract Key Information:
    • Goal: The final product or objective (e.g., "make salt water").
    • Required Components: Items or substances needed (e.g., "sodium chloride, water").
    • Procedural Steps: Actions or combinations described (e.g., "mix sodium chloride, water").
  3. Plan Next Actions: Use the extracted information to determine which skills and actions to invoke next.

Example

Task: Follow a recipe to make salt water.

  1. pick up recipe — acquire the document
  2. read recipe in inventory — output: "To make salt water, mix sodium chloride and water in a glass jar."
  3. Extracted info:
    • Goal: salt water
    • Components: sodium chloride, water
    • Procedure: mix in glass jar
  4. Proceed to fetch sodium chloride, water, and glass jar, then mix.
