Abstract. Deep learning recommenders suffer from black-box opacity and struggle with heterogeneous, incomplete multi‑criteria data. Current Agentic AI systems lack symbolic reasoning for verifiable decisions. We propose a Scalable Agentic Recommendation Framework (ARF) integrating Rough Set Theory (RST) with Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Association Rule Mining (ARM). Our event‑driven agent architecture embeds symbolic rules for real‑time reasoning and autonomous adaptation. A two‑stage algorithm processes nominal, ordinal, and ratio data without forced discretization. Validated via consumer simulations, our approach reduces inference latency by 86\% and rule‑matching cost by 95\% while maintaining interpretability. This bridges symbolic AI and agentic systems for big data e‑commerce.
