security: add prompt injection guards, path traversal prevention, and input validation
Defense-in-depth security hardening for a codebase where markdown files become LLM system prompts. Adds centralized security module, PreToolUse hook for injection detection, and CI-ready codebase scan. New files: - security.cjs: path traversal prevention, prompt injection scanner/sanitizer, safe JSON parsing, field name validation, shell arg validation - gsd-prompt-guard.js: PreToolUse hook scans .planning/ writes for injection - security.test.cjs: 62 unit tests for all security functions - prompt-injection-scan.test.cjs: CI scan of all agent/workflow/command files Hardened code paths: - readTextArgOrFile: path traversal guard (--prd, --text-file) - cmdStateUpdate/Patch: field name validation prevents regex injection - cmdCommit: sanitizeForPrompt strips invisible chars from commit messages - gsd-tools --fields: safeJsonParse wraps unprotected JSON.parse - cmdFrontmatterGet/Set: null byte rejection - cmdVerifyPathExists: null byte rejection - install.js: registers prompt guard hook, updates uninstaller Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
