Operates a device or appliance (like a desklamp, microwave, or fridge) to interact with another object. Use when the task requires using a tool on a target item (e.g., "look at laptop under the desklamp", "heat potato with microwave"). Locates both the device and target object, co-locates them, and executes the appropriate use action (toggle, heat, cool, or clean).

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Instructions

## 1. Skill Trigger
Activate this skill when the task goal explicitly requires **using a device or appliance** to interact with a target object. Common indicators include phrases like:
- "look at [object] under the [device]"
- "heat [object] with [device]"
- "cool [object] with [device]"
- "clean [object] with [device]"

## 2. Core Execution Flow
Follow this sequence when the skill is triggered:

### Phase 1: Locate the Device
1.  **Identify the device** from the task description (e.g., `desklamp`, `microwave`, `fridge`).
2.  **Search common receptacles** where such a device is typically found (e.g., desks, sidetables, countertops).
3.  Use the `go to {recep}` action to navigate to and inspect these locations until the device is found.
4.  **Note the device's exact name** (e.g., `desklamp 1`).

### Phase 2: Locate the Target Object
1.  **Identify the target object** from the task description (e.g., `laptop`, `mug`, `plate`).
2.  **Search the environment** for this object. It may not be near the device initially.
3.  Use the `go to {recep}` and visual inspection to find the object.
4.  Once found, use `take {obj} from {recep}` to pick it up.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zjunlp/skillnet/alfworld-device-operator@sha256:61e52e1fb950e3bf

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260316.e08426e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
