I assume that complex, specific information is what SETI is looking for and assuredly if they find it, we would acknowledge an intelligent source even if we could not define or identify it. Yet this would be considered scientific and would surely be on the table as proof of extraterrestrial intelligence.

Sure. They've posited the existence of extraterrestrial life, and developed a methodology to search for it.

Do you have a methodology to look for the "intelligent agent"?

Yes, I look for complex, specific information. When I find it, I conclude intelligence. Bascally same as SETI.
