What the publisher says

From the herascrape repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

herascrape-mcp

Instagram data for AI agents, over the Model Context Protocol. Point Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code, or any MCP client at herascrape-mcp and it can read public Instagram profiles, content, engagement, and search results directly — no scraping code, no browser, no login.

Every endpoint is one tool, generated from the live API, so the tool list never drifts from what the server serves. It is read-only, cursor-paginated, and flat $0.0004 per successful call (only 2xx is billed). Powered by the herascrape Instagram API.

What agents can do with it

page a user's followers and following; pull the "about" / account details.

  • Profiles & audiences — resolve a username or user id to a full profile;

and reposts; fetch any individual post or reel by id.

  • Content — a user's posts, reels, tagged posts, live stories, highlights,

post or a comment.

  • Engagement — read a post's comments and their replies; see who liked a

media; trending audio and the clips using a given audio track.

  • Discovery — hashtag top / recent / reels; a location's top & recent

check your live balance.

  • Search — users, hashtags, audio, places, and a universal "top" search.
  • Utilities — resolve a shortcode or URL to a media id, oEmbed a post, and

Agents reach for these when a task needs what's actually on Instagram right now — audience research, competitor and campaign tracking, influencer vetting, trend and hashtag analysis, enriching a profile or a post.
