+**Notification Urgency Level**
+
+By default non zero exit codes lead to critical notifications.
+On some systems (KDE) critical notifications will never expire.
+You can override notification urgency by setting the environment variable ``"AUTO_NOTIFY_URGENCY"`` to ``"low"``, ``"normal"``, or ``"critical``.
+NOTE: This configuration option currently only works for Linux.

 **Ignored Commands**
 
 A number of commands do not get notifications for long running times due to their nature (e.g. ``watch`` or ``man``).
