My addition to the conversation, which you were already implying, would be a framework I call “Mixed Agency” or “Stacked Agency,” where God is not seen as an agent among agents but the Agent of/over agents.

“In the beginning, God did not create things. He created agents, that is, choosers/actors/governors. Like Shakespeare, he is the author and conductor of the play. But unlike Shakespeare, God is the only playwright whose characters are actually real.”
