If I wanted some adventurer type that supported but had a few arcane spells for damage and control, as well as basic "rogue" type stuff (traps, scouting), would that be it?

I feel Dex should be a bit higher for that utility, but spell attack and DC seems important, though I feel I can get spells that largely ignore my Charisma bonus.
It can work.

You should consider also by level 2, you will be able to pick a free archetype so worth checking if you qualify for the archetype you want to take (which might requires a higher attribute depending on your choice)
