+# PlatformIO monitor filter: automatic clock sync for Meck devices
+#
+# When a Meck device boots with no valid RTC time, it prints "MECK_CLOCK_REQ"
+# over serial.  This filter watches for that line and responds immediately
+# with "clock sync <epoch>\r\n", setting the device's real-time clock to
+# the host computer's current time.
+#
+# The sync is completely transparent — the user just sees it happen in the
+# boot log.  If the RTC already has valid time, the device never sends the
+# request and this filter does nothing.
+#
+# Install: place this file in <project>/monitor/filter_clock_sync.py
+# Enable:  add "clock_sync" to monitor_filters in platformio.ini
+#
+# Works with: PlatformIO Core >= 6.0
