## The Human Context (Plain-English Pitch)
SvelteKit is the official full-stack application framework for Svelte, orchestrating routing, server-side rendering, and data fetching. It eliminates the friction of manually stitching together build tooling, page hydration, and backend endpoints. Developers use it to build fast web applications with streamlined client-server state management.

## Breaking Changes & Required Actions
- Mitigates path traversal risks when previewing prerendered pages and data on Windows environments.
- Prevents server-side route resolution from loading code from external origins when handling pathnames prefixed with `//`.
- Escapes `cache-control` headers in prerendered HTML output to prevent header injection.
- Handles malformed pathnames in `reroute` by returning a `400` status response instead of throwing unhandled exceptions.
