# Connect Instagram DMs to Muse

Let Muse read, triage, and reply across Instagram DMs, governed by SealGate and policy-checked on every call.

Part of the [Instagram DMs setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram) , which covers every agent and how the connection works under the hood.

Paste this into your coding agent, or run it yourself in a terminal.

Please help me connect Instagram DMs to Muse through SealGate on my machine. If I do not already have a SealGate account, have me sign up at https://dashboard.sealgate.ai/start/personal-messaging first, since starting there pre-approves the Beeper connector. Then follow the setup steps at https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/muse.md and stop whenever I need to act myself: approving this device in the browser when the installer asks, and, only if I already had an account, approving the Beeper connector in the SealGate dashboard.

Copy

Requires macOS or Windows (Linux is experimental) with the Beeper desktop app installed.

## Connecting Muse

Muse adds the SealGate gateway as a custom MCP server, so Muse's agent can read and send your messages through SealGate's governed, logged tools. See the [Muse setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/docs/getting-started) for the exact steps.

## What Muse can do with Instagram DMs

- Triage new Instagram DMs and draft replies for you to approve.

- Sort real leads and collaboration requests from spam in your requests folder.

- Draft on-brand replies to the customer questions that arrive by DM.

- Search past conversations to find a link, address, or agreement.

## Why connect Instagram DMs through SealGate

One setup for every app, works with cloud and mobile agents, fully governed and logged, and your messages are never stored.

### One setup, every network

The same command connects your whole unified inbox, so you are not wiring up a separate bridge for each app.

### Works with cloud and mobile agents

A local daemon tunnels the connector out, so ChatGPT, Claude, and other cloud agents can use it, not just CLI tools.

### Governed and logged

Every tool call runs through SealGate policies and lands in an audit trail that records only metadata, never your message content, so access stays under your control.

### SealGate never stores your messages

Message content only passes through in transit to be checked against your policies, and is never stored or read by anyone at SealGate.

## Connecting Instagram DMs to Muse: FAQ

Can Muse read and send Instagram DMs messages? Yes. Muse adds the SealGate gateway as an MCP server, which lets it use your Instagram DMs tools. A local daemon tunnels the connector out, so the agent can reach it.

Can ChatGPT or Claude reply to my Instagram DMs? Yes. Once you connect Instagram through SealGate, your agent can read your DMs and draft or send replies, from local tools or cloud apps like ChatGPT and Claude.

Do I need the Instagram Graph API or a business account? No. SealGate connects to your own Instagram account through the Beeper desktop app, so there is no Graph API app or business account to provision.

Is it safe to let an AI agent into my Instagram DMs? Your Instagram login is never stored on SealGate's servers. Every tool call runs through SealGate policy checks and an audit log that captures only metadata (which tool ran, when, and which agent ran it), never your DM content, so you control and can review what the agent does without SealGate storing your messages.

What does SealGate store about my messages? SealGate routes each tool call to your connector and back, holding the request and response in memory only long enough to apply your policies, then discarding them. That check is automated: the gateway inspects the traffic programmatically to enforce your rules, and no one at SealGate can read your messages. They are never persisted and never used to train any model. SealGate keeps only call metadata (which tool ran, when, and which agent ran it), never the tool-call parameters or results, so your conversations and who you are talking to are never stored on SealGate's servers.

Does it work with cloud agents, not just CLI tools? Yes. A small local daemon called stdiod tunnels your local Instagram connector to any cloud or mobile agent, so apps like ChatGPT and Claude can use it too, not just CLI tools on the same machine.
