Although the phrase "no strings attached" might not have quite the connotations you want.
I think a better phrasing would be "yes definitely means yes, within the boundaries explicitly negotiated".
I'm coming from the BDSM community, where explicit negotiations of consent and boundaries are kind of a Big Deal - maybe this is something that the mainstream sexual community could adopt with minor modification. (We've been beta testing it for them for at least three decades, after all)
Well, yes, that's what I should've said.
...making it hard to consent to bondage play for example?
What you did there.
But in all seriousness, yes. A more 'vanilla' example might be: "I enthusiastically consent to sex, but only if you wear a condom."
