It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Meta.\n> Accounts driving private-API traffic can be rate-limited, challenged, or\n> permanently disabled. Use a **burner account** until you trust your setup,\n> keep activity natural, and don't connect over VPNs / datacenter IPs.\n\n24 tools across auth, profile/read, engagement, and DMs.\n\n## Quick start\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/AleemHaider/instagram-personal-mcp\ncd instagram-personal-mcp\npython -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate\npip install -e \".[dev]\"\n```\n\nDrop your creds in a `.env`:\n\n```bash\ncp .env.example .env\n# edit: IG_USERNAME, IG_PASSWORD\n```\n\nThen run it:\n\n```bash\ninstagram-personal-mcp\n```\n\nThe first call (e.g. `instagram_session_status` or `instagram_login`) will\nauthenticate and save a session file to\n`~/.config/instagram-personal-mcp/session.json`. Subsequent runs reuse it.\n\n## Connect to Claude Desktop\n\nEdit `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (Linux) /\n`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"instagram-personal\": {\n      \"command\": \"instagram-personal-mcp\",\n      \"env\": {\n        \"IG_USERNAME\": \"your_username\",\n        \"IG_PASSWORD\": \"your_password\"\n      }\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nRestart Claude Desktop.\n\n## Tools\n\n### Auth\n\n| Tool | What it does |\n|---|---|\n| `instagram_login` | Log in.
