Morphology
reciprocative = reciprocate (transparent) = reciprocate + ive
Regular adjectival formation from 'reciprocate' meaning 'to give in return', so the mutual/action sense is directly recoverable.
Etymology
Reciprocative comes from Latin parts re- 'back' and pro- 'forward', so it paints a picture of things passed 'back and forth' between people. That is why a reciprocative agreement or friendship means each side gives and returns help or favors.
