# Instructions

Heat an object you are holding using a compatible heating appliance (microwave or stoveburner).

## Prerequisites
- The target object must be in your inventory
- A heating appliance (microwave, stoveburner) must exist in the environment

## Workflow
1. **Navigate:** `go to {appliance}` (e.g., `go to microwave 1`)
2. **Check state:** If observation says appliance is closed, execute `open {appliance}` -- verify observation confirms it is now open
3. **Heat:** `heat {object} with {appliance}` -- verify observation confirms "You heat the {object}"
4. **(Optional) Place:** If the task requires it, navigate to the destination and place the heated object

## Action Format
- `go to microwave 1` / `go to stoveburner 1`
- `open microwave 1`
- `heat {object} with {appliance}` (e.g., `heat potato 1 with microwave 1`)

## Error Recovery
- "Nothing happened" on heat: Check (1) you are holding the object, (2) appliance is open, (3) appliance name is correct
- Appliance occupied: Take the existing item out first, then retry

## Example

**Scenario:** You are holding `potato 1` and need to heat it.

```
Thought: I need to heat the potato. I'll go to the microwave.
Action: go to microwave 1
Observation: The microwave 1 is closed.
Action: open microwave 1
Observation: You open the microwave 1. The microwave 1 is open. In it, you see nothing.
Action: heat potato 1 with microwave 1
Observation: You heat the potato 1 using the microwave 1.
```

**Result:** The potato is now heated. Proceed to place it at the destination if required by the task.
