Even though there are sophisticated AI planning algorithms, many integrated, large-scale projects do not use planning. One reason seems to be the missing support by engineering tools such as syntax highlighting and visualization. We offer myPDDL - a modular toolbox for efficiently creating pddl domains and problems. We have compared myPDDL to existing knowledge engineering tools for PDDL and experimentally assesses its usefulness for novice PDDL users.

Code

Documentation

The code comes with a detailed "readme" instruction. An online documentation with examples and an introductory video is available at the project website.
