At which point does an exercise starts being endurance rather than a strength builder?
Basically, how do I tell its time to kick it up a notch?
if you can do 12+ reps you should make it harder

Not OP, but what about static exercises like planks?

I would say if you're holding comfortably for a minute you should add some weight.
More than one rep, but less than 5.
Symmetric Strength says that if you can do more than 10 reps you should increase the weight.
It's a continuous thing and it depends on your cardiovascular endurance and conditioning.
To simplify
As you do more reps you transition from skill based (1-3) to strength based (5-18) to endurance based (20+)
But it depends on the movement and conditioning. Someone with great conditioning might be able to do 30-50reps before there cardiovascular system starts failing. Someone with superb skill at high weights might be able to make 2 reps a strength based movement.
But, for most people, 5-15 rep are where the difficulty comes from strength rather than endurance or skill

on incline bench I can do about 5-6 reps with 35s but I can't do 1 rep 45s. should I add 5s?

That's not true at all. They use less than 10 because it's near impossible to estimate 1rm with reps above that
Anything more than 3 reps is cardio Tbh
