Instagram Reels 短视频按 `username` 列出一个公开账号发布的 Reels，每条带文案、时长、播放量、点赞和评论数、发布时间、地点、话题标签、封面图、视频链接和配乐。它回答「这个账号在做什么样的短视频、表现如何」，适合达人营销评估合作账号，社媒团队对照竞品的视频产出，以及研究短视频形式。

`username` 填账号的 handle，例如 nasa，不带 @。比较表现时，用 `play_count` 对照 `like_count` 和 `comment_count`，能看出哪些视频看的人多、互动也多。这项能力不返回字幕文本、热门评论和作者粉丝数。计数为 null 表示没有公开，不等于 0；`duration_sec` 单位是秒。

## FAQ

### 能拿到 Reel 里说了什么吗？

这项能力不返回字幕文本。作者写的文案在 `text`，话题标签在 `hashtags`，可以用它们检索、统计或分类内容；存数时和 `post_id`、`duration_sec` 放在一起，便于比较不同时长视频的文案。

### 播放量看哪个字段？

`play_count` 是这条 Reel 的播放量，这项能力不另给浏览数。比较时一直用 `play_count`，对照 `like_count`、`comment_count` 看互动；`play_count` 为 null 的行先排除，null 表示没有公开，不代表没人看。

### 怎么读某条 Reel 下面的评论？

这项能力不带热门评论。把这一行的 `url` 传给 Instagram 评论，它接受单个帖子或 Reel 链接，返回这条内容下的评论。账号本身的资料和粉丝数，用同一个 handle 调 Instagram 主页或对象详情。
