Instagram comments and DMs from Cursor
If you build in Cursor, your launch content lives next to your code. Add CueEditio to mcp.json and the agent can wire the comment-to-DM funnel for the launch reel from the same chat.

What you can ask
Example
You
Set up the BETA funnel: follow first, public reply, DM the link. Then DM everyone who commented BETA before the rule existed.
Cursor
Rule ready (BETA, follow required, reply "Sent, check DMs"). 23 earlier BETA comments, 21 inside the 7-day window, 2 too old. Create the rule and DM the 21?

Why not a posting-only MCP?
- Scheduler MCPs publish the post. The work that turns views into leads happens in the comments.
- With CueEditio, Cursor 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
Yes. cursor-agent reads the same mcp.json. Run cursor-agent mcp login cueedit once, then use it in the terminal or in scripts.
A CueEditio account with an Instagram professional (business or creator) account connected. Cursor 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.
