AI agents call getInstagramCommentsByPostId to retrieve information from Social Media Search API — Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, TikTok (XPOZ) without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though getInstagramCommentsByPostId only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Get COMMENT CONTENT (text, likes) for an Instagram post. Returns the actual comment objects with text and metadata. RETURNS COMMENT DATA: id, text, username, createdAtDate, likeCount, childCommentCount. Use for reading what people said. NOT FOR USER PROFILES: To get detailed user profiles (bio, followerCount, followingCount) of commenters, use getInstagramPostInteractingUsers with interactionType="commenters" instead. IMPORTANT: postId must be in strong_id format (e.g., "3606450040306139062_4836333238") - use the full "id" value from other Instagram tools, NOT just the media_id. FAST (default, omit responseType or responseType="fast"): Returns up to 300 results directly (use limit param to reduce, e.g. limit=5). Auto API fallback for fresh data. PAGING (responseType="paging"): Async paginated results (100/page), returns operationId for polling via checkOperationStatus. Supports pageNumber/tableName for subsequent pages. CSV (responseType="csv"): Async single CSV download, returns operationId, poll for S3 link. CODE EXECUTION: For csv mode, download CSV and use code execution to analyze full dataset. Ideal for: sentiment analysis, reading discussions, analyzing comment content, engagement patterns. Date filters: OMIT startDate/endDate parameters by default. ONLY pass these if user explicitly requests specific date range (YYYY-MM-DD format). IMPORTANT!!!!!: THE CURRENT YEAR IS 2026. When user requests relative dates (last week, last month), verify the current date from your system context and double-check the calculated dates - models often get the year wrong, searching one year earlier than intended. Optional fields: ["id", "text", "username", "createdAtDate", "likeCount"]. This is a safe, read-only tool for analyzing searchable information.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Social Media Search API — Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, TikTok (XPOZ) MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

getInstagramCommentsByPostId is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the getInstagramCommentsByPostId rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
