scroll_reels
Scroll the Instagram Reels default feed and extract structured metadata for each reel, including URL, creator, caption, likes, comments, and audio.
Instructions
Scroll the default Instagram Reels feed and return structured reel metadata.
Returns {reels: [...], count, timing, fill_rate}. Each reel: url, creator, caption, description (= caption), visual_description (IG auto alt-text), likes, comments, views, shares, reposts, date_posted (ISO 8601), date_posted_ts (unix), audio, _source. Engagement fields are best-effort — missing ones come back null rather than failing.
Note on views: the home feed omits view/play counts, so views is null here.
Use search_reels/hashtag_reels for reels WITH view counts. See
docs/views-investigation.md. shares and reposts are the same metric.
mode (optional): one of fast_test, normal_passive, conservative. Controls
humanized delay/cap. Defaults to the server's configured mode.
This call drives the default feed only. For a topic use search_reels;
for a tag use hashtag_reels.
