Instagram Analytics

Track your Instagram performance — reach, followers, interactions, Reels metrics, and post-level engagement. Powered by Boring.

Security & Data Handling

  • MCP link is a credential: Your MCP Server URL (https://boring.aiagent-me.com/mcp/t/xxxxx...) contains an embedded authentication token. Treat it like a password — do not share it publicly.
  • Token scope: The embedded token is read-only for analytics. It can only fetch performance metrics and account metadata. It cannot publish, delete, or modify any content on your social media accounts.
  • Token storage: The token is stored server-side in Boring's database (MongoDB on DigitalOcean). It is never written to your local filesystem. You can regenerate or revoke it anytime at boring.aiagent-me.com/settings.
  • Data flow: Analytics queries are sent from Boring's server (Google Cloud, us-central1) to the platform's API on your behalf. Only performance metrics are retrieved — no content is uploaded or modified.
  • No local credentials: No local API keys, environment variables, or secrets are needed. All auth is embedded in the MCP link.
  • Third-party service: This skill relies on Boring, an open-source social media management tool. Source code: github.com/snoopyrain.

Prerequisites

  1. Sign up at boring.aiagent-me.com with Google
  2. Connect Instagram — requires an Instagram Business or Creator account
  3. Get your MCP link: Go to Settings → copy your MCP Server URL (contains your auth token — treat it like a password)
  4. Add to Claude: Paste the MCP link as a Connector — no install, no API key needed

Available Tools

Tool Data Source Best For
boring_get_performance Real-time platform API Account-level overview (reach, followers, interactions)
boring_get_video_analytics Real-time platform API Per-post/Reel metrics (views, likes, comments, shares)
boring_get_posts_performance Daily snapshots (collected at 2 AM) Historical post performance over date ranges
boring_get_publish_history Boring database Publishing history and status tracking

Workflow

Step 1: List Accounts

Call boring_list_accounts and filter for instagram platform.

Step 2: Determine What the User Wants

User Request Tool to Use
"How is my Instagram doing?" boring_get_performance
"Show my best Reels" boring_get_video_analytics
"Instagram performance this month" boring_get_posts_performance
"What did I post on IG?" boring_get_publish_history

Step 3: Fetch Data

Account-Level Performance

boring_get_performance(
  account_id="\x3Caccount_id>",
  platform="instagram",
  period="week"       // "day", "week", or "month"
)

Per-Post Analytics (Real-Time)

boring_get_video_analytics(
  account_id="\x3Caccount_id>",
  platform="instagram",
  limit=20             // max 100
)

Historical Post Performance (Snapshots)

boring_get_posts_performance(
  account_id="\x3Caccount_id>",
  since="2025-12-01",
  until="2025-12-31",
  limit=20
)

Step 4: Present Results

Format the data clearly:

  • Account overview: Show reach, followers, profile views in a summary table
  • Post analytics: Rank posts by engagement, highlight top Reels
  • Historical: Show trends over time, compare Reels vs Photos vs Carousels

Instagram Metrics

Metric Description
reach Accounts reached
follower_count Total followers
profile_views Profile visits
total_interactions Likes + comments + saves + shares
ig_reels_avg_watch_time Average Reels watch time
ig_reels_video_view_total_time Total Reels view time

Error Handling

Error Solution
InvalidApiKey MCP link may be invalid — regenerate it at boring.aiagent-me.com Settings
InvalidAccountId Run boring_list_accounts to get valid IDs
TokenExpired Reconnect account at boring.aiagent-me.com
No data returned Account may be newly connected — data collection runs daily at 2 AM

Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be what it says: a connector to the Boring analytics service that uses a single MCP connector URL containing an embedded token. Before installing/using it: (1) Treat the MCP link like a password — do not publish it; if exposed, regenerate/revoke it. (2) Verify you trust boring.aiagent-me.com and the project/source (the SKILL.md lists a GitHub owner but not a clear repo); check the provider's privacy/security documentation. (3) Understand the token is embedded in a URL — ask the provider how long-lived it is and confirm the token's scope (read-only as claimed). (4) Confirm your agent platform will store/handle the connector securely (and will not leak it in logs or to third parties). (5) If you need stronger assurance, test with an account that has no sensitive data or rotate the token after testing. These precautions will reduce risk despite the skill's coherent design.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: instagram-analytics Version: 1.0.1 The skill bundle provides instructions for an AI agent to interface with an external Instagram analytics service (boring.aiagent-me.com) via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The SKILL.md file defines tools for fetching performance metrics and account metadata, with clear documentation on credential handling and data flow. There is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection attacks within the provided files.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the instructions: all calls and tools in SKILL.md target the Boring service and Instagram analytics. No unrelated binaries, env vars, or permissions are requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly scoped to listing accounts and calling Boring tool endpoints (boring_get_performance, boring_get_video_analytics, etc.). They do instruct the user to paste an MCP Connector link (which embeds an auth token) into the agent platform — this is sensitive but expected for a connector-based analytics integration.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files, so nothing is written to disk or downloaded during install.
Credentials
No environment variables or local credentials are requested; the single required credential is the MCP connector URL (embedded token). This is proportionate for a connector-based analytics skill, but an embedded token in a URL is sensitive and the SKILL.md's claim that it is read-only and only stored server-side is a provider assertion that cannot be verified from the skill alone.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not always-on and does not request system-level persistence or modification of other skills. It depends on a user-supplied connector link and normal autonomous invocation behavior is unchanged.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install instagram-analytics
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /instagram-analytics
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
