How to display products that contain the search word?

Question

WordPress

I received a task from an SEO specialist to make it possible to create a block with products by search query in the admin panel.

That is, he presses the create block button, enters a search query, and a block appears on the page with a set of products that match this query.
Everything is generally clear except for one thing - how to display products by search word? You need to search everywhere, starting from the title, category and tags, ending with the description and custom fields.

I studied a set of shortcodes in wookomers and did not find anything suitable.
The site currently uses the Search by Omega plugin for search. Maybe you can create blocks through it?

B wp_query()has an argument 's'to which you can pass a search query

$args = [
  'post_type' => 'product',
  's' => 'search phrase',
];

$query = new WP_Query( $args );

Search by default occurs in the fields post_title, post_excerpt, post_content. If you need to fix this behavior, look for, for example, wp_query search by post meta , there are solutions.
It remains to make a shortcode out of all this. Fortunately, WooCommerce is already full of product output shortcodes, you can copy any and edit it to suit your task.
