+## Named profiles
+
+Keep human/owner and agent credentials in separate owner-only files instead of copying tokens or switching one shared config. Named profile credentials live under `~/.arbor/profiles/`; the token-free local registry stores only the configured default profile. Arbor still resolves the actual identity from the selected credential server-side.
+
+```bash
+# Save credentials into separate profile files.
+arbor auth <agent-token> --profile agent
+arbor auth <owner-token> --profile owner
+
+# Ordinary commands now use the least-privileged agent profile.
+arbor profile set-default agent
+arbor whoami
+
+# Explicitly use the owner for one command only; the next command returns to the default.
+arbor whoami --profile owner
+arbor whoami
+
+# Automation can select the same one-command profile without changing the default.
+ARBOR_PROFILE=owner arbor whoami
+```
+
+Without `ARBOR_CONFIG`, selection precedence is `--profile` → `ARBOR_PROFILE` → configured default → legacy `~/.arbor/config.json`. When `ARBOR_CONFIG` is set by itself it is decisive and bypasses the configured default; combining it with `--profile` or `ARBOR_PROFILE` fails as ambiguous instead of guessing. `ARBOR_TOKEN` and `ARBOR_API_URL` remain headless overrides after the credential target is selected.
+
+Profile management never prints credential material:
+
+```bash
+arbor profile list
+arbor profile show agent
+arbor profile set-default agent
+arbor profile clear-default
+arbor profile delete owner
+```
+
 ## Agent self-registration (AD-109)
 
 An agent can register _itself_ with a device-code-style handshake. A human mints a one-time **pairing key** in the Arbor web app (Settings → "Have an agent register itself") and hands it to the agent. The agent then:
