🤖 Instagram AI Agent with MCP Server – Built for Smart Engagement and Automation
Hi! I’m Amanda 🥰
I build intelligent automations with n8n and Make.
This powerful workflow was designed to help teams automatically handle Instagram interactions with AI. Using Meta Graph API, LangChain, MCP Server, and GPT-4o, it allows your AI agent to search for posts, read captions, fetch comments, and even reply or message followers, all through structured tools.
🔧 What the workflow does
- Searches for recent media using Instagram ID and access token
- Reads and extracts captions or media URLs
- Fetches comments and specific replies from each post
- Replies to comments automatically with GPT-generated responses
- Sends direct messages to followers who commented
- Maps user input and session to keep memory context via LangChain
- Communicates via Server-Sent Events (SSE) using your MCP Server URL
