Paste this into your coding agent, or run it yourself in a terminal. Please help me connect Instagram DMs to OpenClaw through SealGate on my machine. Follow the setup steps at https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/openclaw.md and stop whenever I need to act myself: approving this device in the browser when the installer asks, and approving the Beeper connector in the SealGate dashboard. Copy Requires macOS or Windows (Linux is experimental) with the Beeper desktop app installed. ## Connecting OpenClaw OpenClaw adds the SealGate gateway as an MCP server, so the self-hosted agent reaches your messaging apps through SealGate's governed, logged tools instead of wiring up every connector itself. See the [OpenClaw setup guide](https://sealgate.ai/docs/getting-started) for the exact steps. ## What OpenClaw 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 logins stay on your device. ### 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. ### Your logins stay on your device Your credentials and logins never reach SealGate's servers; the connector runs on your machine. Message content only passes through in transit to be checked programmatically, and is never stored or read by anyone at SealGate. ## Related guides [Instagram DMs to ChatGPT](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/chatgpt) [Instagram DMs to Claude](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/claude) [Instagram DMs to Codex](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/codex) [Instagram DMs to Devin](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/devin) [Instagram DMs to GitHub Copilot](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/copilot) [Instagram DMs to Grok](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/grok) [Instagram DMs to Grokbot](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/grokbot) [Instagram DMs to Hermes](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/hermes) [Instagram DMs to Lovable](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/lovable) [Instagram DMs to Replit](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram/replit) [WhatsApp to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/whatsapp/openclaw) [iMessage to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/imessage/openclaw) [Telegram to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/telegram/openclaw) [LinkedIn DMs to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/linkedin/openclaw) [Signal to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/signal/openclaw) [Messenger to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/messenger/openclaw) [X DMs to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/x/openclaw) [Discord DMs to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/discord/openclaw) [LINE to OpenClaw](https://sealgate.ai/connect/line/openclaw) [All Instagram DMs setups](https://sealgate.ai/connect/instagram) ## Connecting Instagram DMs to OpenClaw: FAQ Can OpenClaw read and send Instagram DMs messages? Yes. OpenClaw 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 self-hosted 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 stays on your machine and 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.
