Is there anywhere in the help docs that tell you how to search (and set) an object in your inventory? For example, searchign for KeyX and putting it onto var/obj/A.
I don't know about it being in the docs, but here's a sample code:

mob/verb/Search()
for(var/obj/O in oview())
if(!O)
usr<<"You find nothing"
else
O.Move(usr)
usr<<"You find \an [O]!"
break//Stop the loop

I think the Step Byond tutorial includes how to put things in your inventory.

As for searching and manipulating just treat like any ordinary list.
