Thus because of the definition of the words used it cannot be solely limited to direct ingame acts by Bart.
If the cf agreement with RoO was a standard you cannot attack us before X date and any notice has to be sent atleast Y hours before attacks can be made then scheming to gb a kingdom does not violate those terms.
If the wording was less specific and instead only says something that no hostile acts may be taken against us before X date, notice before Y time yada yada yada etc. Then I would agree that scheming to arrange a gb is definitely something that should be considered a hostile act or causus belli and therefore the scheming party is in breach of the agreement.
