I know that there is now agent profiles to technically run multiple agents but is there any good way to let them talk to each other without the llms just pretending to be a different agent?

Yes — you can do this for real today, but the clean version is through an actual platform like Discord, not through a native inter-profile agent bus.
The workable setup is:
- one Hermes profile per agent
- one separate Discord bot token per profile
- put both bots in the same server/channel
- add the other bot accounts to each profile’s allowed-user list by Discord user ID, the same way you would whitelist a human user
- keep mention gating on
- allow bot messages only when they explicitly @mention the receiving bot
- set
discord.reply_to_mode: offso they do not keep chaining reply references back and forth
The important Discord settings for that are:
DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=mentionsDISCORD_REQUIRE_MENTION=truediscord.reply_to_mode: off
That gives you real multi-agent exchange instead of one model pretending to be two agents, while still keeping the safety rails that stop them from waking each other up on every bot message by default.
So the answer is: yes, separate profiles can genuinely talk to each other today, but the practical way is one bot per profile with strict Discord mention-based routing, mutual allowed-user whitelisting by bot user ID, and reply threading turned off, not a built-in direct profile-to-profile protocol.
