I recall someone had made a Spy Rogue-like and posted it here. I didn't try it and it didn't seem to take with the crowd here, but it seemed along the lines of what you're looking for.

I remember two, but they are not "full" roguelikes, they where part of the Seven Day Roguelike Challenge 2011

Kusemono (this one has stealth)

International Elite Detective (not sure if this is what you want)

She was also sad that her father's corpse was rotting in his bedroom, but that's a minor inconvenience.
I love this game so much.

Thanks for the help. Yeah...I figured there wouldn't be much. It was just wishful thinking.

I think you are thinking of a BYOND game that is like SS13 but spy. I dont think it is finished.

It's technically not a roguelike but it's random enough that every game is different and pretty unforgiving:  Covert Action for MSDOS is probably the closest you can get to an espionage roguelike.
