My memory was a little rusty but thanks to your example project I was able to figure this out again quickly. In the cases where inheritance occurs, intended serialization type shall be provided via SerializationData typed methods.

Replace:

data.add("text", object.getText());

With:

data.add("text", object.getText(), Component.class);

Also take a look for other typed methods, for collections, maps, etc.: https://github.com/OkaeriPoland/okaeri-configs/blob/master/core/src/main/java/eu/okaeri/configs/serdes/SerializationData.java

Note third section of typed add method:

    /**
     * Adds value to the serialization data under specific key.
     * Provided value is simplified using attached Configurer.
     * <p>
     * This method allows to narrow target simplification type
     * and is recommended to be used with non-primitive classes.
     * <p>
     * Specifying target simplification type allows to make sure
     * correct serializer is used, e.g. interface type instead
     * of some implementation type that would otherwise inferred.
     *
     * @param key       target key
     * @param value     target value
     * @param valueType type of value for simplification process
     * @param <T>       type of value
     */
    public <T> void add(@NonNull String key, Object value, @NonNull Class<T> valueType) {
        GenericsDeclaration genericType = GenericsDeclaration.of(valueType);
        this.add(key, value, genericType);
    }
