Iris & Oculus Search
by SpacEagle17
Iris & Oculus Search places a search bar inside the shader options screen, so players can type a term and see only the matching shader settings.
What it does
The bar appears in the shader pack options menu and in the shaderpack selection screen. Typing a term filters the list down to the settings that match, and the search runs over the names shown in the menu. Where a shader provides translated labels, the search can match in the language the player has selected.
The mod targets Iris on Fabric and NeoForge and Oculus on Forge, and it is also published for Quilt. Required dependencies are Iris Shaders and Oculus, and the mod needs no configuration files. It runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it. Files are published for 1.20 – 26.3, with snapshot builds included, and the code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

Use cases
Large shaderpacks
Packs with long option lists are easier to navigate when the menu can be narrowed to the setting being looked for.
Testing shader options
Players who switch between settings often can locate a specific toggle without scrolling through every category.
Who it’s for: Players who use Iris or Oculus with shaderpacks that expose many options. It is a client-side tool and does not change how a server or other players see the world.
