To what extent would the seven pre-conquest Kingdoms have maintained official / permanent diplomats with each other? Would there just have been delegations sent when needed (similar to Cat going to Renly in ACOK) or might there have been long-term courtiers from other Kingdoms present in the various capitals?

It probably depended on proximity – I imagine the Reach would need someone permanently in Casterly Rock, Storm’s End, Sunspear (after Nymeria), and maybe in the Riverlands, but the Vale or the North would be much more infrequent, for exmaple.
