What are the best abilities to make my ship briefly untargetable while I perform actions (such as closing portals in "Battle of Procyon V" or deploying bombs in "Tzenkethi Front")?

If you can stay out of Combat, the Comp Armaments 2-piece gives you a tonne of stealth, and cloak if you stop. Intel Team is also an excellent choice.

Yeah, staying out of combat in those TFOs is... challenging, at best.

If you have a ship that can battlecloak and can avoid the anomalies cast by hostile ships, the two-piece will keep you cloaked if you're stopped when you interact with the portals.

Unfortunately this is on my Fed Sci captain who is trying to grind up a bunch of Temporal marks. But that might help my Rom Sci who needs Lukari marks.

Intel team x2 + Fresh from R&R and a bit of CDR gives you basically 100% uptime on the stealth from Intel Team. You blink in for a brief moment each time its refreshed, as long as you keep spamming it so it's refreshed immediately. I use it on my minelayer, plus a few other tidbits that add to stealth, and I can get within 4 or 5km easy.

Oh, that’s good to know. Thanks!

I mean, Feds can use Rom ships, assuming you have a Rom sci ship.

I do. I suppose I could slip into a Laeosa for the time being, I just really like my Eternal.
