A general terms checkbox is enough for agentic workflows.
Agentic workflows need action-level consent that users, operators, and auditors can understand after the fact.

Agentic Consent
Agentic consent defines when an AI agent is allowed to act for a user, what authority it receives, and when explicit confirmation is required.
Definition
Agentic consent defines when an AI agent is allowed to act for a user, what authority it receives, and when explicit confirmation is required.
It matters when agents can book, send, update, purchase, escalate, or expose data rather than only answer questions.
The long-tail search intent is about delegated AI actions, user permission, and auditability in real workflows.
In practical context
What has the user actually authorized the agent to do? In PRO71 delivery work, this term becomes useful when it changes scope, governance, implementation order, or release evidence.
PRO71 designs consent around action type, risk tier, identity, user confirmation, revocation, audit trail, and human escalation.
Why it matters
Agentic Consent is often easiest to manage when it is tied to one named workflow, one accountable owner, and one measurable release gate.
Common misconceptions
Agentic Consent is only a technical detail.
Agentic Consent usually affects ownership, risk, adoption, and measurement, so it should be visible to business and delivery stakeholders.
