Challenge 1: "Serial Snitch"

As a skilled hardware hacker, you've intercepted a mysterious device recovered from a rogue tech syndicate. The device, dubbed "Specter-1", controls access to a secret underground server, but its interface remains locked behind an unknown UART configuration.

Your mission is clear:

1. Identify the UART pins you've uncovered during your investigation.
2. Determine the correct baud rate to establish a stable connection.
3. Access the device’s command interface and unlock control over the system’s lighting grid.
