# Instructions
Execute the `take` action to acquire the target object from the source receptacle.
## Inputs
- `object`: The identifier of the object to pick up (e.g., "toiletpaper 1").
- `source_receptacle`: The identifier of the receptacle where the object is located (e.g., "toilet 1").
## Process
1. **Verify Context:** Ensure the agent is at the location of the `source_receptacle`. If not, the agent must navigate there first using a separate movement skill.
2. **Execute Action:** Perform the action: `take {object} from {source_receptacle}`.
3. **Handle Feedback:** If the environment indicates "Nothing happened," consult the troubleshooting guide in `references/troubleshooting.md` for potential issues.
## Output
- The specified object is transferred to the agent's inventory.
- The agent receives an observation confirming the successful pickup (e.g., "You pick up the {object} from the {source_receptacle}").
