The free-forgetful adjunction for the Eilenberg-Moore category is terminal in the category of adjunctions inducing a fixed monad. The unique morphism into it is the Eilenberg-Moore comparison functor B↦(GB,GεB​). Its underlying objects and arrows are forced by the forgetful functor, and counit compatibility forces its algebra actions.
