The priority-ordering coordinate for agent decision systems.
A position for AI agent platforms where precedence — the ordering and prioritization of competing rules, instructions, or authorities — is the core architectural problem.

Why this is canonical
'Precedence' in technical systems names the rule by which competing instructions are ordered and resolved — operator precedence, CSS specificity, policy precedence in IAM. In multi-agent systems, precedence determines which agent's instructions, permissions, or outputs take priority when they conflict. 'Precedenceagent' occupies the exact intersection of these two concepts, naming the agent whose job is to adjudicate that ordering.
