running several agents with Hermes Agent came up a lot this weekend. here is everything you need to know about it: (1) how do I run separate agents for life, work and home? with profiles. a profile is a separate Hermes home directory, and it becomes its own command when you create it: ``` hermes profile create work work setup work chat ``` (2) does each one keep its own memory, skills and sessions? yes. each profile gets its own config.yaml, .env, SOUL.md, memories, sessions, skills, cron jobs and state database. that includes its own model in config.yaml and its own personality in SOUL.md. (3) can I reach each one from my phone? yes. each profile runs its own gateway with its own bot token, so work and life can be two separate Telegram or Discord bots. `work gateway install` gives that one its own service. (4) can two of them work together? in Hermes Desktop, Bot Mode turns your profiles into a roster of Bots. they message each other directly and share group chats. Hermes Kanban is a durable task board shared across all your profiles, which lets several named agents collaborate on work. (5) how do I switch between them? use the profile's own command (`work chat`), `hermes -p work chat`, or hermes profile use work to make it the default. the prompt shows which profile is active.
