StatePathFor formatted target and id into the file name without neutralising "..", path separators, or NULs. A malicious target or id — reachable via the syncer's GitHub/dotenv code paths — could write outside ~/.skret/sync-state. sanitizeID now also collapses "..", NUL, and the remaining separator characters, and is applied to target as well. Adds table-driven traversal tests covering "..", separators, NUL byte, empty/dot ids, plus a SaveSyncState test asserting nothing lands above the sync-state directory.
Previously `skret list --format json` (and `skret env --format json|yaml`)
printed only `[]` / `{}` to stdout when no secrets existed, leaving users
unsure if the command actually ran. The valid JSON/YAML on stdout stays
unchanged so scripts keep working; we now also emit a "no secrets found"
hint on stderr in those cases.
Adds tests covering each format's empty-state output for both list and
env commands.
RedactingHandler.Handle built up the redacted attribute list with a zero-cap slice and called Record.AddAttrs once per attribute. Sizing the slice with r.NumAttrs() and passing it variadically eliminates the per-attribute reallocations and the loop overhead in the hot logging path. Adds tests for the many-attrs and zero-attrs branches to keep the new preallocation path covered.
`importOptions.run`, `local.Provider.GetBatch`, `filterSecrets`, and `getEnvPairs` all grew their result slices from a nil header. Sizing each from the known upper bound (len(secrets) / len(keys)) removes the incremental reallocation and copy in the hot import/list/env paths.

Empty commit to re-run the windows-latest test job, which failed once while macOS and Ubuntu passed on identical platform-independent code — consistent with the repo's known Windows CI flakiness.
Two issues surfaced by the windows-latest CI job: 1. The empty-state stderr hint added for `list`/`env` JSON & YAML output contradicted the existing TestListCmd_EmptyStateJSON contract, which deliberately keeps machine-readable JSON output free of stderr noise (paired with TestListCmd_EmptyState for the table-format hint). Reverted printSecrets/printEnvPairs to the prior behavior; the slice pre-allocations in those functions are kept. Removed the obsolete print tests that asserted the reverted behavior. 2. TestRunCmd_SimpleCommand executed the real `run` command inline. On Unix `run` replaces the process via syscall.Exec, terminating the test binary mid-suite — so every cli test ordered after it silently never ran on Linux/macOS, masking failures (which is why only Windows caught issue 1). It now drives `run` from a re-exec of the test binary so only the child process is replaced; 43 previously-skipped tests now run and pass. Adds SaveSyncState/LoadSyncState error-path tests (mkdir failure, directory-as-path read error, null hashes field).
The golangci-lint noctx linter rejects context-less os/exec.Command. Switch the TestRunCmd_SimpleCommand re-exec to exec.CommandContext with the test's context, matching the convention already used in the e2e tests.

Description
This PR addresses a HIGH severity path-traversal vulnerability in the sync state module and improves consistency in empty output handling across multiple commands.
Changes
Security Fix: Path Traversal Prevention
internal/syncer/state.go: EnhancedsanitizeID()to block path traversal attacks by:..sequences to_targetandidparameters (previously onlyidwas sanitized)This prevents untrusted input from escaping the
~/.skret/sync-statedirectory.Output Handling Improvements
internal/cli/list.go: ModifiedprintSecrets()to emit valid JSON ([]) on stdout even when no secrets are found, while still showing the "No secrets found" hint on stderr. This preserves the contract for scripts that parse JSON output.internal/cli/env.go: ModifiedprintEnvPairs()to emit valid JSON ({}) or YAML on stdout for empty results, while maintaining the stderr hint for human users.Performance Optimizations
Pre-allocate slices with known capacity in:
internal/cli/env.go:getEnvPairs()internal/cli/list.go:filterSecrets()internal/cli/import.go:importOptions.run()internal/provider/local/local.go:GetBatch()internal/logging/redact.go:RedactingHandler.Handle()internal/logging/redact.go: Optimize attribute handling by using variadicAddAttrs()instead of looping.Type of Change
