+Registry Image Tag Pruner - Keeps only the latest 1 SHA-tag per repository.
+
+Usage:
+    python3 registry_prune.py \
+        --registry registry.nxtgauge.com \
+        --repo nxtgauge-rust-gateway \
+        --username "$REGISTRY_USERNAME" \
+        --password "$REGISTRY_PASSWORD"
+
+Environment variables can also be used:
+    REGISTRY_HOST, REGISTRY_REPO, REGISTRY_USERNAME, REGISTRY_PASSWORD
+
+SHA-like tags are identified by pattern: ^[a-f0-9]{40}$
+Non-SHA tags (e.g., high-performance-latest, main-latest, latest) are NEVER deleted.
+
+Exit code: 0 on success (or if prune fails gracefully), non-zero only on critical error.
