# Skill: Soil Extraction ## Purpose This skill enables the agent to extract soil from the ground using a shovel. It is a foundational step for planting tasks, transforming a bare outdoor location into a source of usable soil. ## Prerequisites 1. **Tool in Inventory:** You must possess a `shovel` in your inventory. 2. **Location:** You must be in an outdoor environment (e.g., `outside`) where digging is permissible. 3. **Ground Access:** The ground must be accessible and diggable. ## Core Procedure 1. **Navigate:** Ensure you are in the target outdoor location (e.g., `teleport to outside`). 2. **Execute Dig:** Use the command `use shovel in inventory on ground`. 3. **Collect Output:** The action will produce `soil` placed nearby. Use `pick up soil` to add it to your inventory. ## Key Notes * **Deterministic Action:** The `use shovel in inventory on ground` command is a reliable, single-step method for soil extraction as demonstrated in the trajectory. * **Output Management:** The extracted soil is a separate object that must be explicitly picked up. It does not automatically enter your inventory. * **Skill Chaining:** This skill is typically followed by `teleport` to transport the s

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.
