verifying-placement

Confirms from one RGB-D view that a released object went through an aperture, accepting either that it vanished into the container or that its visible centre lies below the rim within the opening's footprint, and routing not_placed when it is still visible above or beside the aperture. Use when an insertion-and-release must be checked without simulator state, after the release has completed.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by graph-robots on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Verifying Placement AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/graph-robots/open-robot-skills/tree/main/skills/verifying-placement
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/graph-robots/open-robot-skills.git /tmp/open-robot-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/open-robot-skills/skills/verifying-placement .claude/skills/verifying-placement
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Verifying Placement in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Verifying Placement on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Verifying Placement is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

verifying-placement

Use once, after executing-feature-mating has released the object. Take a fresh observation and call verify_placement with the aperture the fixture perception measured (aperture_center, rim_z).

The script segments object_description in camera_name. Below score_min the object is taken to have disappeared into the container, which is verified. Otherwise its mask is back-projected and the median must lie more than depth_margin_m below rim_z and within xy_tolerance_m of the aperture centre in XY; anything else, including a mask with fewer than min_points valid depth points, routes not_placed with the evidence spelled out. The script never raises on a verdict.

Boundaries

  • Only meaningful for an opaque container after a completed release; an object still in the gripper would also "disappear" from an overhead view.
  • No simulator query or object pose is read.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Verifying Placement AI skill do?

Confirms from one RGB-D view that a released object went through an aperture, accepting either that it vanished into the container or that its visible centre lies below the rim within the opening's footprint, and routing not_placed when it is still visible above or beside the aperture. Use when an insertion-and-release must be checked without simulator state, after the release has completed.

Why use Verifying Placement on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Verifying Placement is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Verifying Placement in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/graph-robots/open-robot-skills/tree/main/skills/verifying-placement. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Verifying Placement?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Verifying Placement?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Verifying Placement with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Verifying Placement AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by graph-robots under the Apache-2.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
