 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-02-03 - 3.1.3 - fix(mod_update)
+try private registry (verdaccio.lossless.digital) first when fetching package versions; fall back to public npm; handle unknown latest versions gracefully in output
+
+- getLatestVersion now attempts a direct API request to https://verdaccio.lossless.digital/<encoded-package> and parses dist-tags.latest
+- Falls back to npm view when the private registry request fails
+- Scoped package names are URL-encoded (replaces '/' with '%2f') before querying the private registry
+- Packages with no resolvable latest version are included with latestVersion set to 'unknown' and displayed as '? Version unknown'
+- needsUpdate is set to false when latest version is unknown
+
 ## 2026-02-03 - 3.1.2 - fix(scripts)
 make test script output verbose by using --verbose instead of --web
