Looking: Recs for best depictions of clandestine agencies (sffa.community)

I am looking for others’ recommendations for the best Spec Fic stories centered around covert organizations and their dealings/activities. Intelligence agencies, special units, black operations, etc.

Some examples that spring to mind are Special Circumstances from The Culture series and Section 8 from Star Trek.

Okay I found this link: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/136847.Sci_Fi_Fantasy_Spy_Books_Novels

and from it, I know a few people who really praise the Vorkosigan Saga, so maybe that's an option?

I have heard of that series but never read any of the books. I will definitely check that out though! Thanks!
