Hermes Wingtips #43: Telegram topics or a second agent?

running several projects through one Telegram bot? there are two ways to split them, and they are not the same thing.

(1) /topic

parallel conversations inside one bot DM. still one agent behind them, so what it learns on one project helps the others.

(2) hermes profile create \<name>

a second agent entirely, with its own bot.

pick topics when your projects should feed one brain, profiles when you need real walls between them. and both can run on the same machine!
