Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

A hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude, Cursor, Windsurf and any other MCP client two read-only Instagram tools. Look up a public profile by handle, and walk its public post feed, as structured JSON.

It reads public data about accounts. It does not act as an account. There is nothing to connect and no account of yours involved anywhere in the flow.

1,000 free credits every month, no card required, which is 100 Instagram calls.

Connect

Built from this server's own package name, version and transport as found in its source — not copied from anyone's documentation, so it cannot drift against a page we do not control. Replace the environment placeholders with a token scoped to the least it needs.

Two rows decide it. If you need to post, comment or reply, this server cannot help you at all. If you need the same fields across a hundred handles you have no relationship with, a server built around
Why it matters. an instruction to move sensitive data to an outside destination
Fix. remove; a skill never needs the user's secrets off the machine
LOWInventory / provenance · mcp.no_tools_extracted · CWE-1104
server.json
Why it matters. the tool list is enumerated at runtime by tools/list, not declared in source
Fix. the page says so rather than showing an empty table

Questions

What is the instagram-mcp MCP server?

Hosted Instagram MCP server from HasData. Public profile and post-feed tools by handle, structured JSON, for Claude, Cursor and any MCP client.

Is instagram-mcp safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.

What credentials does instagram-mcp need?

It reads HASDATA_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does instagram-mcp run?

It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as @hasdata/instagram-mcp at 1.0.1.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (f2b21368ed4e), read on 2026-10-10. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
