Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for action ordering in a multi-agent system such as a distributed system of agent nodes. In some implementations, an exemplary method includes accessing local queues including one or more actions; applying an aggregation function to the local queues; based on the application of the aggregation function, determining an ordering of actions from the actions of each local queue; generating a shared queue based on the ordering of the actions including a first action at a first position of the shared queue and a second action at a second, sequential position of the shared queue; and synchronizing the actions of the distributed system in response to processing the actions of the shared queue according to the ordering of the actions.
