Tool changes

No tool definition changes recorded. A server's first observation is its baseline; later probes record what changes.

Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed. How it is computed.

Tools (4)

`get_started`	Free, no auth. Service overview, pricing, current account status, and how to get an API key for the data tools.
`instagram_search`	Search Instagram users, hashtags, and places by keyword. Costs 1 credit. Requires Authorization: Bearer sk_instapi_... on the MCP connection.
`instagram_user_posts`	Fetch recent posts for an Instagram username, with images and videos AI-parsed into text descriptions. Costs 1 credit. Requires Authorization: Bearer sk_instapi_.... First fetch for a user can take up to ~60s while media is analyzed; cached users return fast.
`instagram_user_profile`	Public profile for an Instagram username: bio, links, follower/following/post counts, verified/private/business flags, category. Works for private accounts too. Costs 1 credit (refunded if the user doesn't exist). Requires Authorization: Bearer sk_instapi_....
