Run Auto DM from Claude or ChatGPT

Auto DM is an MCP server (Model Context Protocol, the open standard both Claude and ChatGPT use for tools). Connect it once and say things like "put a LINK rule on my latest reel that DMs the Notion template" or "which comments failed this week?". The assistant uses the same rules, limits and guards as the dashboard.

What your assistant can do

List connected Instagram accounts

The Instagram accounts connected to this Auto DM login, with plan, DMs used this month and the monthly limit.

List recent posts and reels

Recent posts and reels of an account, newest first, with id, kind, date, caption, comment count and how many rules each post has.

Get one post with its rules

Details of one post or reel (caption, kind, permalink, comment count), the rules on it, and its last DMs and replies..

List rules

All rules of an account: global rules (every post) and post rules.

Create a rule

Add a keyword → DM rule on one post (post_id) or on every post (no post_id).

Edit a rule

Change a rule's keywords, match type, DM, public reply, or pause/resume it (active).

Delete a rule

Permanently delete a rule.

Recent DMs and replies

The latest DM and reply attempts (sent, replied, failed, skipped) with commenter, keyword, post and any error, plus this month's usage against the plan..

Test which rule a comment would trigger

Dry run: given a comment text (and optionally the post it is on), shows which rule would fire and the exact DM and public reply a follower would receive.

Not included on purpose: sending DMs or broadcasts. Those stay in the dashboard where you see the recipient list and a progress bar before anything goes out.
