StoriesIG Instagram MCP: public posts, reels and stories in chat
Read a public Instagram profile's posts, reels, stories and highlights from Claude or ChatGPT, with no Instagram login. The StoriesIG Instagram MCP server can also show followers and comments and download public media. Follower lists and comments name real people, so when the server runs through ContextGate, a policy can hide personal data in those calls.
