fix(navigation): resolve wait on canceled requests

cli/CHANGELOG.md

@@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ _Released 10/20/2025 (PENDING)_
 - Fixed an issue where grouped command text jumps up and down when expanding and collapsing in the command log. Addressed in [#32757](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/32757).
 - Fixed an issue where command snapshots were not correctly displayed in Studio. Addressed in [#32808](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/32808).
 - Fixed an issue with grouped console prop items having a hard to read blue color in the console log and duplicate `:` characters being displayed. Addressed in [#32776](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/32776).
+- Fixed an issue where `cy.wait('@alias')` could time out when the underlying network request was canceled by navigation (e.g., `cy.visit`, `cy.reload`). Fixes [#19326](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/19326).
