Reply to Instagram comments with Grok Bot

Auto-reply tools post the same line under every comment. Grok Bot can read each comment and write a reply that answers it. CueEditio lists only the comments you have not replied to yet, so a second run never double-replies.

Ask Grok Bot

You

Every day at 9am, reply to unanswered comments on my last 3 reels. Short, friendly. Send me the drafts first and post after I approve.

Grok Bot

Routine saved: daily 9:00 IST, owned by this Bot. Each run lists unanswered comments on your last 3 reels, sends you the drafts, and posts only after you approve. First run tomorrow.

Example conversation. Post names and counts will be your own.

The CueEditio tools that run

  • list_postsLists recent posts and reels with comment counts so Grok Bot can pick the ones with the most waiting.
  • list_commentsPulls comments with unhandled_only, so only comments you have not replied to come back.
  • reply_to_commentPosts each public reply under its comment.

How it works

  1. 1.Connect once

    Add the CueEditio MCP to Grok Bot and connect Instagram.

  2. 2.Say which posts and what tone

    "My last 3 reels, short and friendly, answer questions properly."

  3. 3.Review the drafts

    Grok Bot shows the replies before posting. Edit any, or say go.

  4. 4.Re-run any time

    Already-answered comments are skipped, so a daily run only touches new ones.

Grok Bot keeps working on its cloud computer after you close the app. Once a reply or DM job works, save it as a skill and give it a routine, with your approval boundary written into the routine.

Limits to know

  • Public replies are capped at 600 per hour per account.
  • Replying needs CueEditio Pro ($6 or ₹459 a month). Listing comments is free.
  • CueEditio replies to top-level comments on your own posts. It cannot comment on other people’s posts.

Questions

No. list_comments marks comments you already replied to (replied_by_me), and Grok Bot asks for unhandled comments only.

Yes. Public replies have no age limit, so you can clear a backlog on reels from months ago. Only DMs are limited to comments from the last 7 days.

Give Grok Bot two or three of your real replies as examples, or keep a short style note in its instructions. It drafts every reply and shows them to you before posting.

No. The CueEditio MCP can read and reply. It has no tool to hide or delete comments.

CueEditio has been submitted to the Grok Bot plugin marketplace and is waiting for xAI’s review. Until it appears in Connect apps, add it as a custom MCP server with the URL above.
