Replace the [brackets] with your details, then paste this into your assistant.
Help me locate a photo or video of my own moment at [event] on [date], around [time], near [location within the event]. Here is what I remember: [details].
Check the event’s official galleries, public recordings and archive information first. Report what you searched, plausible matches with timestamps, and what you cannot access. If the material appears to be held privately, identify one appropriate official contact and draft a concise request with only the details necessary to locate it. Ask me to review any personal information before it is shared. Do not identify unrelated people, bypass access restrictions or contact anyone yet. Respect any refusal. Return the best next step and explain whether an actual matching recording was found or only a route to ask for it.

What the result could look like
A precise request beats a vague search
Instead of looking for an entire event, you get a specific archive contact, a narrow time window and a draft that helps a human locate the moment.
Illustrative example. This is not an observed result or a verified recommendation.
The real-world spark
Inspired by a reported use
Levine reports that Instinct coordinated requests for US Open jumbotron footage; human production staff supplied the clip.
The reported result was not independently authenticated. The agent did not retrieve a hidden public video by itself. The prompt above is our original extension, not the author's exact prompt or a tested result.
