All this seems to tell me is that the Machine's are smarter than your average human. You really think that under this fragile armistice that the Machines are going to do nothing? Each side is afraid of what the other is capable of, so they build up their respective powers and try to harvest intelligence, pursuing their own agendas. A classic Cold War scenario.
If anything, the event on Friday told me that Seraph was there to reveal what the Machines were up to. Now Seraph may not have been acting under Zion (he seems possessed if anything) but it does make one wonder what the Zion council and the Merv are up to. I doubt the Machines are the only ones utilizing misinformation around here. It is the Matrix after all.
And don't forget, the Machines aren't human, so the chances of them deliberately "violating the truce" are remote at best.
