In The Bible, such agreements are called covenants.
An example of such a covenant is the Mosaic Law covenant, of which, the Ten Commandments were the most famous part of that law covenant. That agreement consisted of about 300 requirements, and the agreement was between the Jewish nation of Israel and their God.

A:

There are other religions that have their own concepts of agreements/covenants between men and their respective Gods. Some religions state that there were men and women who were given pledges or promises; they received boons from their respective Gods. The various different religions and cultures had their own descriptions for these compacts between men and their God. Some religions claim that their God made various covenants with individuals to be born as a son, daughter, brother, wife, husband etc. It is also acclaimed that God made covenants with individuals to protect or save them from the wrath of demonic individuals.

What does a intermediary do?

A Intermediary is the same thing as a mediator. I Timothy 2:5, "For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus". A mediator is a connecting link between two parties who want to come to an agreement. In the case of I Timothy 2:5 talking about Salvation Jesus Christ was the connecting link between God and men. Jesus was the perfect mediator as he possessed the nature and attributes of God (He was the Son of God and God Himself) and He (Jesus) was fully a Human Being. Jesus was the God/Man and so was the perfect Mediator. He mediates peace between God and any man who comes to God through Jesus Christ.
