/**

## Before (The Bug)

for original code.

## After (The Fix)

```python
/**
 * Validates that a missionId contains only safe characters and cannot be used for path traversal.
 * Mission IDs should be alphanumeric with hyphens/underscores only.

Testing

    • Verified existing test suite passes
  • Manual verification: fix(security): validate missionId in creator-mission to prevent path traversal

Files Changed

File Change Summary
src/lib/server/creator-mission.ts
src/lib/server/creator-mission.ts

Risk Notes

  • Surface changed: src/lib/server/creator-mission.ts
  • Risk level: Low - minimal code changes
  • Reviewers should verify: Fix handles edge cases correctly

Duplicate Notes

…traversal

- Add validateMissionId() helper that enforces alphanumeric, hyphens, and underscores only
- Block path traversal attempts like '../../etc/passwd' in readCreatorMissionTrace()
- Log invalid missionId attempts and return null safely
- Prevents user-supplied missionId from resolving outside the state directory
