coactive
Jointly acting parties
Coactive describes things that work together or act in conjunction.
Two forces may be coactive in producing an outcome, or coactive agents may collaborate toward a shared goal.
The word appears in technical and formal contexts—psychology, robotics, organizational theory—where mutual or joint action needs emphasis: coactive learning, coactive relationships between humans and machines.
