Once the reel is live, tell me and I’ll attach the rule to it: keyword CHECKLIST, follow required, public reply "Sent! Check your DMs", DM with your checklist link. What’s the link?

Why not a posting-only MCP?
- Scheduler MCPs publish the post. The work that turns views into leads happens in the comments.
- With CueEditio, ChatGPT can reply to every comment and DM the people who ask for your link.
- Auto DM rules keep running on CueEditio’s servers after the chat ends.
Questions
Custom MCP servers need developer mode, which OpenAI enables on some paid plans. Check the Plugins page in your ChatGPT settings. CueEditio itself works on its free plan for reading and on Pro for sending.
A CueEditio account with an Instagram professional (business or creator) account connected. ChatGPT connects to https://www.cueedit.io/api/mcp/mcp. Agents that can run commands sign themselves up with an email code; you only approve Instagram.
CueEditio’s tools tell the agent to show you the exact message and get a yes before any reply, DM or rule change. You can also keep your agent’s per-tool approval prompts on.
Not yet for everyone. Facebook Page replies and Messenger DMs are waiting on Meta’s review, so these pages cover Instagram only.
Reading posts, comments and rules works on the free plan. Sending replies and DMs and creating Auto DM rules needs CueEditio Pro: $6 a month, or ₹459 in India.
