 - Discord/Agent component interactions: accept Components v2 `cid` payloads alongside legacy `componentId`, and safely decode percent-encoded IDs without throwing on malformed `%` sequences. Landed from contributor PR #29013 by @Jacky1n7. Thanks @Jacky1n7.
 - Matrix/Directory room IDs: preserve original room-ID casing for direct `!roomId` group lookups (without `:server`) so allowlist checks do not fail on case-sensitive IDs. Landed from contributor PR #31201 by @williamos-dev. Thanks @williamos-dev.
 - Discord/Inbound media fallback: preserve attachment and sticker metadata when Discord CDN fetch/save fails by keeping URL-based media entries in context, with regression coverage for save failures and mixed success/failure ordering. Landed from contributor PR #28906 by @Sid-Qin. Thanks @Sid-Qin.
+- Auto-reply/Block reply timeout path: normalize `onBlockReply(...)` execution through `Promise.resolve(...)` before timeout wrapping so mixed sync/async callbacks keep deterministic timeout behavior across strict TypeScript build paths. (#19779) Thanks @dalefrieswthat and @vincentkoc.
 - Docs/Docker images: clarify the official GHCR image source and tag guidance (`main`, `latest`, `<version>`), and document that `OPENCLAW_IMAGE` skips local image builds but still uses the repo-local compose/setup flow. (#27214, #31180) Fixes #15655. Thanks @ipl31.
 - Docker/Image base annotations: add OCI labels for base image plus source/documentation/license metadata, include revision/version/created labels in Docker release builds, and document annotation keys/release context in install docs. Fixes #27945. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Agents/Model fallback: classify additional network transport errors (`ECONNREFUSED`, `ENETUNREACH`, `EHOSTUNREACH`, `ENETRESET`, `EAI_AGAIN`) as failover-worthy so fallback chains advance when primary providers are unreachable. Landed from contributor PR #19077 by @ayanesakura. Thanks @ayanesakura.
