Start an AutoDM or comment auto-reply
start_autodmStarts a monitor that auto-replies to comments on a chosen post: private DMs on Instagram, public replies on TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Threads and Bluesky. Optionally filter comments by trigger keywords.
Instructions
Watch one of the profile's posts and automatically answer everyone who comments on it (optionally only comments containing trigger_keywords, e.g. 'comment POST'). On Instagram (default) the answer is a private DM with reply_message and up to 3 link buttons. On tiktok, youtube, facebook, threads and bluesky it is a PUBLIC reply under each matching comment; links in TikTok replies are not clickable, so point people to the bio. Instagram and TikTok answer new comments within seconds; youtube, facebook, threads and bluesky check for them every monitoring_interval minutes (15 minimum). At most 25 replies per interval (10 on YouTube), and the monitor stops after 15 days. Returns the monitor ID used by the other AutoDM tools. Needs the user's approval: call it first without confirmed to get a preview (nothing is sent), show the user exactly what will go out, and repeat the call with confirmed: true only after they approve.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| buttons | No | Instagram only: up to 3 web_url buttons ({ title, url }) added to each DM. | |
| post_id | No | Post to watch on tiktok/youtube/facebook/threads/bluesky (instead of post_url): TikTok video id, YouTube video id, Facebook post id ('{pageId}_{postId}'), Threads post id, Bluesky at:// URI. A TikTok or YouTube URL is also accepted. | |
| platform | No | Network of the post. Default instagram, which answers with a private DM. tiktok, youtube, facebook, threads and bluesky have no private reply to a comment, so matching comments get a PUBLIC reply under the comment instead. | |
| post_url | No | Post URL to watch. Required on Instagram; on the other networks post_id is preferred. | |
| confirmed | No | Set to true only after the user has seen the preview this tool returns without it and approved it. Without it nothing is sent. | |
| reply_message | Yes | Text sent to matching commenters: a DM on Instagram, a public reply elsewhere. | |
| reply_messages | No | Public replies only: up to 5 alternative texts, rotated across comments so TikTok and YouTube do not see the same reply over and over. | |
| profile_username | Yes | Upload-Post profile name that owns the connected account. | |
| trigger_keywords | No | Keyword or keywords; when set, only comments containing them are answered (case and accents ignored). | |
| monitoring_interval | No | Minutes between comment checks. Minimum is 15. Instagram and TikTok answer within seconds, so there it only paces a backup check. |
