From the SKILL.md

# Instructions Execute the `take` action to acquire the target object from the source receptacle. ## Inputs - `object`: The identifier of the object to pick up (e.g., "toiletpaper 1"). - `source_receptacle`: The identifier of the receptacle where the object is located (e.g., "toilet 1"). ## Process 1. **Verify Context:** Ensure the agent is at the location of the `source_receptacle`. If not, the agent must navigate there first using a separate movement skill. 2. **Execute Action:** Perform the action: `take {object} from {source_receptacle}`. 3. **Handle Feedback:** If the environment indicates "Nothing happened," consult the troubleshooting guide in `references/troubleshooting.md` for potential issues. ## Output - The specified object is transferred to the agent's inventory. - The agent receives an observation confirming the successful pickup (e.g., "You pick up the {object} from the {source_receptacle}").

How do I install it?

Where does this skill come from?

From zjunlp/SkillNet, a repository with 1,117 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
