The direct antonym or opposite of the word agitator depends heavily on whether you are referring to mechanical engineering or social dynamics. In mechanical engineering and home appliances, the opposite of an active washing machine agitator is a passive impeller, tumble drum, or smooth wash plate that relies on fluid currents or gravity rather than a center spindle. In social, political, and interpersonal contexts, the opposite of an agitator (someone who stirs up trouble or conflict) is a peacemaker, mediator, appeaser, stabilizer, or calm conciliator who works to reduce tension. Always evaluate vocabulary within its specific domain.
