STRIPS — Stanford Research Institute Problem Solver

Fact

A classic planning format for action needs and action results.

In Plain Words

STRIPS is like a school lunch ticket. It says, “Need bread first.” Then poof, bread down, sandwich up.

It turns a goal into small actions with needs and results. You meet it in old-school AI planning.
