alfworld-tool-locator

Searches for a specified tool or device (e.g., a desklamp, knife, or sponge) within the ALFWorld environment by checking relevant surfaces. Use when you need a tool to interact with another object as part of a task but the tool is not in your inventory or immediate vicinity. Takes a tool name as implicit input and navigates to likely storage spots (sidetables, shelves, countertops) until the tool is found.

# Instructions

Locate a specified tool or device by systematically checking receptacles where it is likely stored.

## Workflow
1. **Prioritize search locations** based on tool type:
   - Small tools/electronics (desklamp, remotecontrol): `sidetable`, `desk`, `drawer`, `shelf`
   - Kitchen tools (knife, spatula): `countertop`, `cabinet`, `drawer`
   - Cleaning tools (sponge, spraybottle): `shelf`, `cabinet`, `countertop`
   - Default: check all visible receptacles in order
2. **Navigate** to each prioritized receptacle: `go to {receptacle}`
3. **Inspect** the observation for the target tool name
4. **If found:** Stop searching. Proceed to use the tool for the main task
5. **If not found:** Continue to the next receptacle in the priority list
6. **If exhausted:** Expand search to remaining receptacles not yet checked
