Cisgender means not transgender. Those are binary antonyms.
If you change your gender from what it was assigned at birth, you are transgender and therefore not cisgender.
To complicate things, if you are transgender, you were never cis.
None of this has anything to do with genitals other than that is generally one of the main inputs the doctor who assigns your gender at birth uses. It’s like being assigned white or black upon birth by a doctor, they just use their best guess and often take liberties and sometimes even make changes and those changes turn out to be wrong… They should not be making assumptions or decisions or changes unless strictly necessary, which they are often not.
So a god whose existence at birth is fluid, would be, like the rest of us, whatever they were. But, for ease of language, likely fall under they/them, depending on reference purpose, like a wiki or their own desired image or role.
You would have to ask them.
Just like everybody else.
When in doubt, just ask.
In general, though, I think most gods are above gender, as gender is a human social construct and gods are… Well, those things are dumb and don’t apply because gods usually don’t give a shit and don’t play by your silly little self imposed made up rules like who makes house and who works and who is more courageous and who proposes or whatever garbage.
A clownfish isn’t trans just because it changes its sex. In fact, it’s cis all the time, because its the biological sex that changes.
If the character naturally, natively changes their sex, they aren’t trans either.
Humans cannot change their sex, they can only change their gender. That’s what trans people do.
If an animal or a being can change their sex, they are still cis while doing so (unless they change their sex and then change their gender to a different one at the same time).
But the concept of trans just plainly doesn’t apply to many species. Some have more than two sexes, some have more than one sex at a time.
When talking about other species, sex is really not a solid thing at all.

For humans, yes. For other species, not so much.
