Description

Reference: https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/platforms/creating_platform.html

Basically just doing steps 1-4, copying/pasting the source in the doc to ~/.platformio/platforms/myplatform/platform.json and ~/.platformio/platforms/myplatform/builder/main.py, then running ~/.platformio/penv/bin/pio platform search (now deprecated for pkg, btw) which comes up with stuff online, so I append the query myplatform, which results in the message stated in the title for this post.

Research direction

Start with the referenced Custom Development Platforms page and reproduce the steps using ~/.platformio/platforms/myplatform/platform.json and builder/main.py. Run ~/.platformio/penv/bin/pio platform search with and without myplatform, then document the expected search behavior and clarify the deprecated command if the page still uses it.
