About the project

SkillNet is infrastructure for finding, creating, evaluating, combining, and coordinating reusable capabilities for AI agents. Agent developers use it as a searchable and installable library of skills and as a system for selecting skills for particular tasks. The catalogue contains skills that can be discovered, installed, or used with SkillNet.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

alfworld-object-locator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Skill: Object Locator for ALFWorld

When to Use

Trigger this skill when:

  1. Your goal requires a specific object (e.g., knife, cellphone, apple)
  2. The object is not in your inventory
  3. The current observation does not explicitly state the object's location

Core Workflow

1. Parse the Environment

Extract all visible receptacles from the observation text. Typical ALFWorld receptacles include:

  • Surfaces: countertop, desk, dresser, bed, shelf, sidetable, coffeetable, diningtable
  • Containers: drawer, cabinet, safe, fridge, microwave, garbagecan
  • Appliances: sinkbasin, bathtub, stoveburner, toaster

2. Rank by Likelihood

Use common-sense reasoning to prioritize where the target object is most likely found:

Object Type High-Probability Receptacles
Kitchen items (knife, spatula, pan) countertop, drawer, diningtable, stoveburner
Food (apple, potato, tomato, bread) fridge, countertop, diningtable, microwave
Bathroom items (sponge, cloth, soap) sinkbasin, bathtub, cart, shelf
Electronics (cellphone, laptop, remote) desk, sidetable, dresser, bed, coffeetable
Stationery (pen, pencil, book) desk, shelf, drawer, sidetable
Lighting (candle, desklamp) sidetable, shelf, desk, dresser

3. Navigate and Search

For each candidate receptacle (in priority order):

  1. go to {receptacle}
  2. Read the observation — does it mention the target object?
    • YES: take {object} from {receptacle} — object found
    • NO: If the receptacle is closed, open {receptacle} and re-check
    • Still NO: Move to the next candidate receptacle

4. Track Searched Locations

Maintain a list of already-searched receptacles to avoid revisiting them. If all high-probability locations are exhausted, expand the search to remaining receptacles.

Example

Task: "Clean the knife and put it in drawer." Observation: "You are in the middle of a room. Looking quickly around you, you see a countertop 1, a drawer 1, a drawer 2, a fridge 1, a sinkbasin 1, a stoveburner 1."

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
