Why You Need instagram-manager
Instagram is one of the most important platforms for brands, e-commerce, and influencer marketing. But extracting actionable data — engagement rates, hashtag performance, competitor posting patterns — usually requires expensive social media management tools.
Instagram Manager extracts public Instagram data through the Teneo Protocol decentralized data network. Query profiles, posts, comments, and hashtags with simple commands. Each query costs micropayments in USDC ($0.005-$0.01), making it cost-effective for research without monthly subscription fees.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does it need a cryptocurrency wallet?
The skill uses Teneo Protocol, a decentralized data network that charges micropayments per query ($0.005-$0.01). You need a wallet with USDC tokens on Base, Peaq, or Avalanche. Always use a dedicated, low-balance burner wallet.
Can it post to Instagram?
No. Instagram Manager is strictly read-only. It can only extract publicly available data — profiles, posts, comments, and hashtag results. It cannot post, like, follow, or interact.
Is the data real-time?
The data is fetched on-demand through Teneo's network, so it reflects the current public state of Instagram. However, there may be slight delays compared to the live platform.
