Skill: Storage Explorer

When to Use

Activate this skill when:

1. You have an object that needs to be stored/placed.
2. The exact target receptacle is unspecified or ambiguous.
3. You need to validate if a potential receptacle is appropriate before placing the object.

Core Strategy

1. Prioritize Exploration: When the target location is unclear, systematically check available storage receptacles.
2. Inspect Before Placing: Always open and examine a receptacle's contents before deciding to place your object there.
3. Maintain Environment State: Close receptacles after inspection unless you're placing the object inside.

Execution Pattern

Follow this decision flow:

Phase 1: Initial Assessment

• Identify all potential storage receptacles in the environment (drawers, cabinets, etc.)
• If you already have the target object, proceed to Phase 2
• If you don't have the object, acquire it first (this skill focuses on storage exploration)

Phase 2: Systematic Exploration

For each candidate receptacle:

1. Navigate to the receptacle
2. Open it (if closed)
3. Observe its contents
4. Evaluate suitability based on:

• Current contents (are similar objects stored here?)
• Available space
• Logical categorization

1. Close the receptacle (unless placing object there)

Phase 3: Decision Making

• If you find a clearly appropriate receptacle (e.g., contains similar objects), place your object there
• If no receptacle is clearly appropriate, choose based on:
• Empty receptacles first
• Proximity to related objects/areas
• Consistency with environment patterns

Key Considerations

• Efficiency: Don't explore receptacles that are clearly inappropriate (e.g., refrigerator for non-food items)
• Context Clues: Look for environmental hints about storage organization
• Task Requirements: Consider if the object needs special conditions (clean, cooled, heated)

Error Handling

• If "Nothing happened" when trying to open/close, the receptacle might be locked or broken
• If unable to place object in a receptacle, try alternative locations
• If all exploration fails, reconsider your understanding of "appropriate" storage
