⚠️ DEPRECATED

This OCP search skill is deprecated and unmaintained. OCP search skills (OVOSCommonPlaybackSkill + @ocp_search) are replaced by MediaProvider plugins loaded in-process by the ovos-ocp-pipeline-plugin, which dispatches search to them — the replacement is ovos-media-provider-youtube. The package is published, but it only does anything once the OCP pipeline's MediaProvider dispatch is the default search path — installing it does not replace this skill under the legacy OCP/ovos-audio stack. ovos-media is a separate component (the player daemon) and is not involved in search.

This skill keeps working until the OCP pipeline's MediaProvider dispatch becomes the default search path and this repository is archived.
