Disclaimer: this is not a replacement for proper sequencing run tracking. Disclaimer: PRs welcome to fill gaps! Instrument IDs are less reliable as those are often changed by the sequencing center.

Got ONT data? Their flowcells do not follow a naming convention, but they can look up flowcells internally; contact them via the support page on their website.
