🔒 ModVersionGuard Protection

Agrarian Reform includes a zero-dependency ModVersionGuard check executed during early startup (onInitialize()):

ModVersionGuard.checkClass("Agrarian Reform", "net.minecraft.world.entity.EntityTypes");

If an incompatible Minecraft release missing core classes is loaded, Knot classloader resolution detects the discrepancy immediately, producing a clean, human-readable error log explaining the mismatch rather than crashing silently during world gen or tick loops.
