An integration with Instagram’s Graph API, the official interface for reading and publishing content from eligible Instagram Business or Creator accounts.

Fetch recent photos, videos, and Reels; inspect individual media details; search recent hashtag media; and publish image posts with captions.

It removes the need to manually perform common Instagram account and media actions. Access requires the account, Facebook Page link, app permissions, and credentials described in the source.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00019	$0.01758
Opus 5	$0.00010	$0.00879
Sonnet 5	$0.00004	$0.00352

Security

Grade B, and why

instagram scanned grade B with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

bash -c 'curl -s -X POST "https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/${INSTAGRAM_BUSINESS_ACCOUNT_ID}/media" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @/tmp/request.json --header "Authorization: Bearer ${INSTAGRAM_ACCESS_TOKEN}"'

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 217 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Instagram API (Graph API)

Use the Instagram Graph API by directly executing curl commands to read and publish Instagram content.

Official docs: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api

When to Use

Use this skill when you need to:

Fetch recent media (photos / videos / Reels) from an account
Get detailed information about a specific media item (caption, type, link, time, etc.)
Search recent media by hashtag
Publish image posts via API (with caption)

Prerequisites

You must have an Instagram Business / Creator account linked to a Facebook Page
Create an app in Facebook Developers and enable Instagram Basic Display / Instagram Graph API permissions
Obtain:

INSTAGRAM_ACCESS_TOKEN: a long-lived user access token
INSTAGRAM_BUSINESS_ACCOUNT_ID: your Instagram Business account ID

Set the environment variables, for example:

export INSTAGRAM_ACCESS_TOKEN="EAAG..."
export INSTAGRAM_BUSINESS_ACCOUNT_ID="1784140xxxxxxx"

These examples use Graph API version v21.0. You can replace this with the latest version if needed.

Required permissions (scopes)

Depending on which endpoints you use, make sure your app has requested and been approved for (at least):

instagram_basic
pages_show_list
instagram_content_publish (for publishing media)
instagram_manage_insights and related permissions (for insights / some hashtag use cases)

Important: When using $VAR in a command that pipes to another command, wrap the command containing $VAR in bash -c '...'. Due to a Claude Code bug, environment variables are silently cleared when pipes are used directly.
bash -c 'curl -s "https://api.example.com" -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY"' | jq '.'

How to Use

All examples below assume you have already set:

INSTAGRAM_ACCESS_TOKEN
INSTAGRAM_BUSINESS_ACCOUNT_ID

1. Fetch recent media for the account

Fetch the most recent media (photos / videos / Reels) for the account:

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
