name	scienceworld-environment-isolation
description	Use when you need to isolate a space (like a greenhouse) by closing doors or openings to create a contained environment. Trigger before starting pollination, temperature-sensitive experiments, or other environmental-sensitive tasks that require controlled conditions. Modifies room connectivity to optimize conditions for specific processes.

Instructions

When to Use

Trigger this skill when you need to:

1. Optimize Pollination: Isolate a room (like a greenhouse) to concentrate pollinators (e.g., bees) and prevent them from leaving, thereby increasing the chance of successful cross-pollination between plants.
2. Control Environmental Factors: Create a stable, contained space to manage variables like temperature, humidity, or airflow for a sensitive process.
3. Prevent Contamination or Interference: Seal off a room to protect an ongoing experiment or task from external disturbances.

Core Action Sequence

1. Assess the Environment: Use look around to identify all doors, windows, or other openings in the current room.
2. Execute Isolation: For each identified opening (e.g., "door to the outside", "door to the hallway"), issue a close command.
   • Example: close door to outside
   • Example: close door to hallway
3. Verify Closure: Perform a final look around to confirm all intended openings are now closed and the room is successfully isolated.

Key Principles

• Completeness: Ensure all exits are closed for full isolation. An open door can defeat the purpose.
• Context-Specific: The specific doors to close depend entirely on the room's layout. Always verify via look around.
• Post-Isolation: After isolation, monitor the contained process (e.g., plant growth) and use wait actions as needed to allow time for the optimized conditions to take effect.

Notes

• This skill modifies the connectivity of a space, not its internal state (like temperature controls).
• The primary observed benefit in the trajectory was enhancing bee-mediated pollination by preventing bee escape.
• Reversal (re-opening doors) is not part of this skill's core function but can be done using standard open commands if needed later.

Example

Scenario: You need to cross-pollinate two plants in the greenhouse using bees.

1. You have placed both plants and a bee jar in the greenhouse.
2. Run look around — you see: "door to outside (open)", "door to hallway (open)".
3. Run close door to outside — output: "You close the door to outside."
4. Run close door to hallway — output: "You close the door to hallway."
5. Run look around — confirm both doors now show as closed. The greenhouse is fully isolated.
6. Release the bee by running open bee jar. The bee cannot escape and will pollinate both plants.
7. Run wait several times to allow pollination to complete.
