I think he was referring to our Agents, whose emblems would be the Abyss Watchers' logo. The Jedi are well aware of the Abyss Watchers if Ahsoka's questioning of their logo's Sithiness is anything to go by.
EDIT: Also, the Abyss Watchers are a publicly-listed mercenary company to my knowledge, and I don't think we've made any effort to hide that we own it.

AND at the beginning we didn't make any overt attempts to hide ourselves when we first made contact with bounty hunters (+ with relationship of 6/10 we are ~~"known" in many Bounty Hunter and "spy" circles)
Hot Damn! It's okey, @Dr. Snark you portrayed him well (felt like I'm watching original Clone Wars), but still God Damn!
Having Gen'Dai DNA would be astronomically useful for Karada: species that can live more than 2000 years can regenerate from nigh-everything and have next-to-no problems from ageing?
-even basic stem cell therapies would have made Karada one of the top medical establishments in the Galaxy
They're half convinced that she's a Sith Lord. Which probably isn't helped by the fact that she actually is a Darth. If they knew we had kill teams and were capable of predicting our deployments of them, why would they be helping them?

Our relationship with the Jedi is 7/10, which isn't great but definitely above decent. Our relationship with the Sentinels in particular is probably better, considering we've been assisting them by gathering information for them for ages. Still, the Sentinels only help out when their interests align with ours (such as in this case) or with actions they wouldn't take offence to, like murdering criminals to death (such as when Gregarious was annihilating the Black Sun).

So Silencer got a nice trait out of it. I wonder if being so outclassed by an opponent made him more patient.
Also I hope we can get Ciaran to train with HK in future. Actually it might be useful to have HK teach an anti-force user course to all our men and women.

Why? Only hero units would be useful against Sidious, our assets are already enough to bring down Dooku and his apprentice, and the only other relevant force-using military group are the Jedi.

Well, the more competent our agents become, the more hero units we have available to use against Sidious and Dooku. Plus I didn't just mean agents, our martially inclined hero units could use some cross training.

And Don't worry folks, we're not "overplanning" Force-User killing, we merely view all our available options, just like HK-47 did

for references view ....

Agents aren't hero units, nor can they become hero units. (Except maybe by omakes or something, like with that Kaleesh Agent.) A Tier 2 has only a 5% chance of getting to Tier 3 - the maximum tier. Considering Tier 3 is at the level of a mere Jedi Knight, they wouldn't even be able to slow him down, anti-Force training or no.
remember lava is ALWAYS a good way to kill someone! and if Dwarf Fortress taught me anything it's also good for cleaning up trash!
Well gee, hopefully they think they are CNS Black Ops?
And the Jedi have seen our Agents in battle, I'm going to assume that they're not good enough to hide their powers whilst fighting.
'Hey, Ciaran has Force Sensitive soldiers!'

You misunderstand. I meant that if our agents were more competent then we wouldn't have to expend that many hero units on supervising them, thereby leaving more hero units to fight Sidious.

Our Agents bear the logo of the Abyss Watchers, which is a legal mercenary company and publicly known to be owned by Ciaran.
What powers were they to use here besides precog and reflexes? It was just shooting at a guy who wasn't good at dodging.
I don't believe our Agents need supervising.

Maybe, but we are going to be in an all out fight against the Sith soon, our people will need every advantage they can get.
Statement: That just further proves the stupidity of using blasters against force users.
Addendum: If your telekinesis is that good you would be better served using it to deploy grenades.

The Jedi are much better suited to personally fighting and killing Sidious than we could ever be. Best leave it to them so we can focus on our own part in the fight (that is, dealing with everything else).

Ideally yeah, but it would be foolish to depend entirely upon the Jedi. We should have alternatives if the Jedi fuck up.

I wouldn't say it's foolish so much as it's the only real option. Dr. Snark has made it clear that doing stuff like bombing him isn't something we can do - only direct, personal combat can kill him. If the Jedi fail in that regard, then we'll certainly have no chance.

Again, we can't depend entirely on the Jedi. Hell, it isn't even a given that that the Jedi will help us at all. The council is still suspicious of us and we cannot predict their behaviour if they realise that we are Darth Traya. It is very much possible that the council might come to the conclusion that we are the Darth controlling the senate, especially if Sidious manages to create a fake trail leading back to us.

Get this right, He is the end boss. You do not get to NPC kill him for you. If he too powerfull for you, you go and level up. That is the game.
So stop trying to finish the game without fighting him.

This guy gets it.
And it only took 15 or so reminders for SOMEONE to do so.

Honestly, I think it makes both in-character and by the fact that we are playing Ck2-style, not RPG, sense that Ciaran should never ever try to fight Palpatine herself. We are not a martial character, using our organisation and manipulating others into doing that for us is our thing.

We have enough proof and enough reputation that they'll believe us. The only reason we haven't told them yet isn't because we're afraid they won't believe us, but because of the collateral effects that killing the Chancellor would bring about as a result of their recklessness.
Arrogance. You carry with you the assumption that that the galaxy revolves around us, that everything happens only in relation to us and for us. In truth we are just a very large factor, and while we may be the protagonist of our own story, we are not the protagonist of the setting. In Star Wars, the greatest and most important theme has always been the battle between light and dark, good and evil, the Jedi and the Sith. Breaking the final conclusion to such an epic and ancient war like you're saying we should is the narrative equivalent of photobombing.
I'm in full agreement with this.
