linker
This term describes an agent of connection, whether that agent is a human mediator, a piece of software, or a mechanical fastener. It carries a functional, utilitarian connotation, focusing on the act of bridging a gap to create a unified whole or a working relationship.
In technical computing contexts, the word is highly specific and refers to the final stage of the build process. In social or mechanical contexts, it is more general, though it often implies a structural or systemic necessity rather than a casual association.
