# igsight-mcp <!-- mcp-name: io.github.vinihuge/igsight-mcp --> MCP server to read and analyze Instagram posts and profiles for AI agents. Inspired by [smorand/mcp-instagram](https://github.com/smorand/mcp-instagram) (MIT). See [NOTICE](NOTICE) for attribution details. PyPI: [igsight-mcp](https://pypi.org/project/igsight-mcp/)  ## Quickstart **Fastest path:** install into your MCP client, save an Instagram session with **`igsight-mcp login`** (or use browser cookies), restart the client, then call **`get_post`** on a public Instagram URL. ```bash igsight-mcp install --client cursor # or: claude | vscode | all uvx --refresh --from 'igsight-mcp[login]' igsight-mcp login # recommended session setup uvx --refresh igsight-mcp doctor # fast local checklist (+ fixes) uvx --refresh igsight-mcp doctor --online # optional live Instagram session probe ``` ### Usage examples After install, **restart your AI client** (Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code) and confirm the **igsight** MCP server is **enabled** in that client’s MCP settings. Then try natural-language prompts such as: - “Analyze this post: https://www.instagram.com/p/XXXX/” - “Summarize the last 10 posts from @profile and tell me what drives engagement” - “Compare @profile1 and @profile2” - “Get the comments on this reel and tell me the overall sentiment” - “Transcribe this reel” (needs **`igsight-mcp[local]`** or cloud **`IGSIGHT_TRANSCRIBE_*`** keys) One-click (same config as `install`; log into Instagram in Chrome first): [](cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=igsight&config=eyJjb21tYW5kIjoidXZ4IiwiYXJncyI6WyJpZ3NpZ2h0LW1jcCJdLCJlbnYiOnsiSUdTSUdIVF9DT09LSUVTX0ZST01fQlJPV1NFUiI6ImF1dG8ifX0) [![Install in VS Code](https://img.shields.io/badge/Inst…
