fix(humanize): strip custom kwargs before forwarding to Playwright select_option

originals.select_option(**kwargs) passes human_config/force to Playwright
which rejects unknown kwargs with TypeError.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.3.28] — 2026-05-11
+
+- **[wrapper]** **Security**: `cloakserve` — sanitize fingerprint seed to prevent path traversal, bind to `127.0.0.1` on bare metal, detect Podman containers (#217)
+- **[wrapper]** Fix GeoIP resolution hanging indefinitely — bounded with 10s timeout so `launch()` cannot stall (thanks [@manaskarra](https://github.com/manaskarra), #213)
+- **[wrapper]** JS: preserve iframe scope in humanized frame actions — `check()`, `uncheck()`, `selectOption()` now execute in the correct frame (thanks [@manaskarra](https://github.com/manaskarra), #201)
+- **[wrapper]** JS: add TypeScript types to humanized method options — `HumanActionOptions` type for `human_config` and `timeout` overrides (thanks [@eofreternal](https://github.com/eofreternal), #205)
+- **[wrapper]** Log when SOCKS5 credential auto-encoding rewrites a proxy URL (thanks [@Youhai020616](https://github.com/Youhai020616), #209)
+- **[wrapper]** JS: bump `playwright-core` peer dependency minimum to >=1.53.0 (#200)
+- **[meta]** Bump sigstore/cosign-installer in CI (#214)
+
+## [0.3.27] — 2026-05-06
+
+- **[wrapper]** Per-call `human_config` override — pass `human_config={...}` to individual humanized methods to override global HumanConfig on a per-action basis (#183)
+- **[wrapper]** Humanized `scrollIntoViewIfNeeded` — auto-scrolls with human-like behavior when `humanize=True` (#183)
+- **[wrapper]** Forward `timeout` parameter through humanized Playwright methods (#183)
+- **[wrapper]** Fix humanize timeout default to align with Playwright's 30s auto-retry instead of custom 2s (#172)
+
 ## [0.3.26] — 2026-04-28
 
 - **[binary]** Windows x64 upgraded to Chromium 146.0.7680.177.4 — 57 source-level fingerprint patches (up from 33 on 145.0.7632.159.7), now matches Linux. Includes all binary improvements from 0.3.18–0.3.25: native SOCKS5 proxy with UDP ASSOCIATE (QUIC/HTTP3), WebRTC IP spoofing, proxy signal removal, CDP input stealth, storage quota normalization, WebAuthn/AAC/window position patches, WebGL and canvas consistency fixes, expanded GPU model database
