Agree with you, is "with you" the cause or the end?

Hi,

In "I agree with you", does "with you" cause "I agree" or is "I agree" for the purpose of "with you"?

Could any native speaker tell me the truth?

Thank you for your help.

Hi MM,

How about agree to it or consent to it?

Is it the purpose or the cause?

I see at as neither: I see it as the complement.

Hi,

Is it in your mind that to agree with you means compared with you, I am the same , to agree to you means surrender unto your power / give up / give in unto your power ?

So, to agree with is the real agreement, but to agree to is not.
