Most of Prevent's functionality is now covered natively by .NET's own guard-clause throw-helpers (ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull, ArgumentException.ThrowIfNullOrEmpty/ThrowIfNullOrWhiteSpace, ArgumentOutOfRangeException.ThrowIfGreaterThan/ThrowIfLessThan, etc., .NET 6/8+), and the remainder is comprehensively covered by Ardalis.GuardClauses, which has far greater adoption and active maintenance. - README.md: archival banner pointing to Ardalis.GuardClauses and BCL alternatives, ahead of the (still-useful) usage sample. - CONTRIBUTING.md: replaced the now-moot trunk-based workflow doc with a short "not accepting contributions" stub. No further releases are planned; release.yml stays disabled permanently. See the deprecation-plan checklist for the remaining manual steps (NuGet Deprecate listing, AppVeyor project teardown, NuGet API key rotation, GitHub repo archive).

README.md— archival banner explaining why: most ofPrevent's functionality is now covered by .NET's own BCL guard-clause throw-helpers (ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull,ArgumentException.ThrowIfNullOrEmpty/ThrowIfNullOrWhiteSpace,ArgumentOutOfRangeException.ThrowIfGreaterThan/ThrowIfLessThan, etc., .NET 6/8+), and the rest is comprehensively covered by Ardalis.GuardClauses (50M downloads, actively maintained) vs. ArgSentry's own 71.7K total downloads with no functional release since 2022.CONTRIBUTING.md— replaced the trunk-based workflow doc (now moot) with a short "not accepting contributions" stub.Not in this PR (manual follow-ups, tracked separately)
