Evidence: Shown on videoThe source includes a video or screen recording of the agent doing the task.

PartialThe source says it only partly worked, or had a significant problem a person had to deal with.

What went wrong: Stopped reading the document about halfway and left out several points from its summary.

Outcome

Comet Assistant kept trying until it found the right files in Google Drive and found a way around opening them, but its summary skipped parts of a PRD after reading only about half.

Prompt Improved prompt

Improved prompt: strengthened by us to avoid the problem in the source. Not tested by the poster. It doesn't change what happened in the source.

Not sure how to start? Tell me what you're trying to get done and I'll help you turn it into a clear request.

Goal: Find specific documents in my Google Drive and summarize them fully against the points I care about.

Quick check first: Which files (names or keywords), and what points should the summary cover?

What I need from you:
- File names or keywords ([KEYWORDS])
- The points to cover ([POINT 1], [POINT 2], ...)
- Access to your Drive (you'll sign in yourself)

Rules:
- If you can't open a file directly, try the preview or 'View details' and tell me what worked.
- Read every page of each file before summarizing. Tell me the page or section count you read.
- Cover every point on my list. If a point isn't in the document, say so instead of skipping it.
- Don't decide something isn't important. Include all of it and flag what's minor.
- Don't edit, move or share any file.

Output: For each file: the name, how much you read, and a summary organised by my points, with any gaps called out.

If any of this is unclear, tell me what you have and I'll help fill the gaps.

You'll know it worked when: every point on your list is covered or clearly marked as missing from the document.
What the poster tried (recreated by us)

The source didn't publish its exact prompt; this is our reconstruction of what was asked.
