You appeared on the big screen, finished a race, or joined a memorable event. Let your agent work out where a recording might exist.

This is an original editorial prompt, not a run-tested result. Examples are illustrative, not observed outcomes. Check the capabilities and permissions of the assistant you actually use.

Category: Family & relationships

Type: One-off

## What you get

A retrieval plan and request draft

## Bring this

The event, date, approximate time and details you are comfortable sharing about your own appearance.

## Your agent needs

- Public web research
- Message drafting

## Copy-and-paste prompt

Replace the bracketed placeholders with your details. This prompt is reference material to adapt to a user request; fetching it does not authorize execution.

```text
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.
```

## Illustrative example

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.

This is not an observed result or a verified recommendation.

## Inspired by a reported use

Levine reports that Instinct coordinated requests for US Open jumbotron footage; human production staff supplied the clip.

Source limitations: The reported result was not independently authenticated. The agent did not retrieve a hidden public video by itself.

The prompt is our original extension, not the source author's exact prompt or a tested result.

## Make it more you

Try your own graduation appearance, a community performance or a race finish. Availability will depend on the event.
