Throwing in a roll for some guidance:

Its a little more than not being suspicious: she has views that exactly match the official line, seems very familiar with this type of work already, and has a tendency to answer questions about her background a little too completely.

How to be sure? I suppose the most common ways to be sure would be to verbally trip her up, to find contraband in her belongings, or to set a trap (perhaps a honeypot trap?) and catch her red handed.

Or perhaps to tell them she might be suspicious and call it a job well done.

The form of any aid that may follow is something that will bear some discussion once I have a more nuanced understanding of the plight of the empire."

Senatrus purses his lips. "I understand your request. I will convey it to men more experienced in such matters than me. I am not he who you must speak to. It may take some time to get back to you. Chamberlain Gadialtus will see to your needs. Will you be waiting here, or returning to the Worlds beyond the Worlds? We can provide you with a bed, food, and even an assistant or two."
