Inspects the contents of a container or device using the 'look at' action. Use this skill when you need to verify what is inside a container (e.g., checking if lead is in the blast furnace), monitor the state of contents (e.g., solid vs. liquid phase changes), or confirm that a placement or process step succeeded. Returns a detailed list of contents and their states for process monitoring.

# Skill: Container/Device Inspector ## When to Use Trigger this skill when you need to: 1. **Verify Placement:** Confirm an object has been successfully moved into a target container (e.g., "Is the metal pot in the blast furnace?"). 2. **Monitor State Change:** Check if the contents of a container have changed state due to a process (e.g., "Has the lead melted into liquid lead?"). 3. **Inventory Check:** List all items currently stored inside an open container or device. ## Core Instruction **Always use the exact action:** `look at <CONTAINER_NAME>` - Replace `<CONTAINER_NAME>` with the precise name of the target object (e.g., `blast furnace`, `cupboard`, `tin cup`). - This action returns a structured observation detailing the container's state and a list of its contents. ## Expected Output & Interpretation The observation will follow this general pattern: `[CONTAINER], which is [STATE]. The [CONTAINER] door is [OPEN/CLOSED]. In the [CONTAINER] is: \n\t[LIST OF CONTENTS]` **Key Information to Extract:** 1. **Container State:** Is it activated/turned on? (e.g., "which is turned on"). 2. **Door State:** Is it open or closed? You can only see contents if the door is open. 3. **Content

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add zjunlp/SkillNet --skill scienceworld-container-inspector --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

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.
