## Already consuming the XARF v3 schema?

The v3 schema is **preserved** and will keep resolving, but you should **repoint your references** to the stable, domain-based URLs so you are not depending on this archived repository:

| If you currently fetch… | Switch to… |
|---|---|
| `https://github.com/abusix/xarf/releases/download/.../xarf_bundled.schema.json` | `https://xarf.org/schemas/v3/xarf-v3-legacy.json` |
| `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xarf/schema-discussion/master/xarf.schema.json` (the legacy `$id`) | `https://xarf.org/schemas/v3/xarf-v3-legacy.json` |

The existing release assets and URLs will remain available for the foreseeable future, but **no new v3 releases will be published** and the repository is read-only (archived).

---

## Why the move?

XARF v4 is a ground-up revision: a unified, machine-readable format with a per-type schema model, real-world sample reports, a published migration path, and officially maintained libraries across multiple languages. Development, issues, and discussion all happen in the **[xarf organization](https://github.com/xarf)** now.

## Historical v3 information

The original v3 README content below is retained for historical reference.
