QIO Sync
by Solski
QIO Sync synchronizes the search boxes of Mekanism's QIO storage interface with EMI and JEI, so typing in one updates the others.
What it does
Typing in the QIO search box updates the EMI or JEI search field, and typing in either of those boxes updates the others. A settings button on the QIO interface lets each player choose how the search bar interacts with EMI and JEI. Recipe-viewer searches can also be kept independent when preferred. The behavior options are saved in qiosync-client.toml, and the settings apply globally to the QIO interface for any player who opens it.
The mod also changes how recipe transfer works from the recipe viewers into QIO. It opens a QIO crafting window automatically when one is needed, uses up to three of the available QIO crafting windows, and prefers empty crafting grids before reusing occupied ones in a round-robin pattern. It also fixes the Fill Recipe button in EMI for QIO. The mod requires Mekanism alongside EMI and JEI, and it runs on the client alone, so the server does not need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, covering 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the code is under All rights reserved.

What the author says
It adds search synchronization inspired by Refined Storage and improves how EMI or JEI recipes are transferred into QIO's three crafting windows. QIO Sync is entirely client-side. It does not need to be installed on a server. Install it in the client's mods folder alongside Mekanism and EMI or JEI (or both).
