 ## Pending
 
 
+
+## 2026-05-29 - 5.12.0
+
+### Features
+
+- support unknown/unreachable duration thresholds (actions)
+  - Add optional unknownMinutes thresholds for actions when UPS status remains unknown or unreachable.
+  - Allow shutdown and Proxmox actions to run on configured unknown-state threshold violations.
+  - Expose unknown duration and threshold values to script and webhook actions.
+  - Update CLI and systemd output to configure and display unknown/unreachable thresholds.
+
+### Fixes
+
+- migrate smartconfig release settings to target-based npm config (config)
+  - Adds schemaVersion 2 release targets for git and npm while keeping Docker releases disabled.
+  - Switches the release tooling project type from deno to npm.
+
 ## 2026-05-29 - 5.11.2
 
 ### Fixes
