Individual skill

scienceworld-process-pauser

This skill introduces deliberate pauses in task execution. Use when the agent needs to consider next steps, evaluate intermediate results, or wait for processes to complete. The skill uses the 'wait1' or 'wait' actions to temporarily halt activity, preventing rushed decisions in complex experimental procedures.

# Skill: Process Pauser

## When to Use
Activate this skill when you need to:
* **Consider next steps** in a complex procedure.
* **Evaluate an intermediate result** (e.g., a mixed chemical, a partial assembly).
* **Wait for a simulated process** to complete.
* **Prevent rushed decisions** that could lead to errors.

## Core Actions
Use the following actions to implement a pause:
* `wait1`: Pauses execution for a single simulation step. Use for brief reflection.
* `wait`: Pauses execution for 10 simulation steps. Use for longer consideration or simulated waiting periods.
