  Gather resources from objects in the world.

  Usage: mine <object>   - Mine ore from rocks (requires pickaxe)
         chop <object>   - Chop logs from trees (requires axe)
         fish <object>   - Fish from fishing spots (requires rod/net)

  Gathering skills use a tick-based action system:
  1. You begin the action (e.g. "You swing your pickaxe...")
  2. After a wait (reduced by tool speed), the game rolls for success
  3. Success picks a weighted random drop from the object's drop table
  4. Depleting drops remove the resource temporarily; rare drops don't

  Tools: Items with tool_type and tool_speed. The best matching tool in
  your inventory or toolbelt is used automatically. Higher tool_speed
  means faster gathering.

  Numbered targeting: "mine 1.rock" targets a specific instance when
  multiple objects of the same name are present. "look" shows instance
  indices and depletion status.
