download_video
Use when the request says download, save, fetch, archive or get a local copy.
Instagram Reels MCP
Add Reels parsing to MCP-capable agents.
Fastdown is a local MCP stdio server backed by a Cloudflare API. Agents can inspect public Instagram Reels links, return structured metadata, or save media files when the user asks.
Tool descriptions matter
The MCP server exposes narrow tools so agents can pick local download versus metadata parsing without guessing.
parse_video
Use when the request asks for URLs, media entries, title, author or platform metadata.
quota
Use when the user asks how many successful parses remain today.
Directory submission angle
For MCP directories, describe this as a public video parsing and local download capability for AI agents.
