Could you build this?

Partial Building the UI and webhook handler is straightforward, but production deployment requires Meta Tech Provider approval and strict rate-limit and Webhook architecture for high-volume Instagram messaging APIs.

What it would actually take: The backend needs a distributed queue system (such as Redis/BullMQ or AWS SQS) paired with Node.js/Go microservices to ingest high-frequency Instagram webhook events (comments, mentions, messages) and dispatch responses within strict Meta API rate limits. The critical non-vibe-codeable hurdle is navigating Meta's rigorous App Review process and business verification to obtain Instagram Graph API messaging permissions without having apps disabled.
