Description
## Business value
Repository owners need clear timing and actions so the move to Build Insights is coordinated without disrupting .NET delivery.
## Expected outcome
Once Build Insights meets the primary-tool readiness gate, stakeholders understand when and how to switch their required check, how long Build Analysis will remain available, and when Build Insights becomes the only supported experience.
## Acceptance criteria
- Communication is sent after the readiness decision in [#6650](https://github.com/dotnet/arcade-services/issues/6650).
- Repository owners are asked to replace the Build Analysis check with the Build Insights check.
- The expected switchover timing is communicated as approximately the end of September 2026.
- Build Analysis continues running for at least one month after the switchover.
- Build Insights becomes the only supported tool no earlier than after the .NET 11 release.
- [Build Analysis](https://helix.dot.net/BuildAnalysis) displays a notice directing users to Build Insights and communicating the planned retirement of the Helix experience.
- The communication aligns with the broader adoption guidance in [#6648](https://github.com/dotnet/arcade-services/issues/6648).
