Whether or not you identify with your assigned gender. Cis by default still means you identify as cis.

cis by default is more "description of a phenomenon" and agender is more "explicitly held position" i think

If you know the answer to this then you have spent way too much money at uni on a worthless degree learning about imaginary words for conditions that do not exist in reality.

Discomfort with being slotted in with gendered categories?
-
i don't intuitively view this as having to do with gender identity; it seems more like differences in how people deal with social slotting in general.

They are opposites. A person who is 'cis by default' is comfortable with their assigned gender, and would be comfortable if they had the other gender too. A person who is 'agender' is not comfortable with their assigned gender, and is also not comfortable with the other gender.

To the former it means gender doesn't matter much (they would likely passively accept any gender identity assigned at birth); to the latter (binary) gender is something they feel strongly doesn't fit them/ describe them & actively reject it for reasons from personal to political.

Like most things that orbit spaces in the subjective there are likely people who actively use agender to describe themselves but don't particularly feel strongly about gender at all. Agender is a purposefully vague term & has been adopted by many for many different reasons.
