The Kirk Cabal was a loosely-organized group of Federation Starfleet officers dedicated to tracking and opposing the activities of the shadow organization within Starfleet known as Section 31.

The group was founded in 2269 when Federation Starfleet Captain James T. Kirk of the starship USS Enterprise uncovered the existence of Section 31 following the Lantaru sector disaster. (TOS - Section 31 novel: Cloak)

In 2375, the Kirk Cabal's numbers were very small. Amongst its members were Elias Vaughn and Julian Bashir. (DS9 - Section 31 novel: Abyss)

With the public exposure and subsequent end of Section 31 in the early 25th century, it is likely that the Kirk Cabal was also disbanded. (ENT novel: The Good That Men Do)
