## Title

    [Trigger.dev] "Your run was terminated due to exceeding the machine's memory limit" (TASK_PROCESS_OOM_KILLED / MAYBE_OOM_KILLED)

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Task container memory limit.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Limitations:
    - Messages come from the @trigger.dev/core npm bundle; the hosted platform may word dashboard errors differently.
    
    Other error fragments:
    - TASK_PROCESS_OOM_KILLED
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://registry.npmjs.org/@trigger.dev/core/-/core-4.6.4.tgz#package/dist/esm/v3/errors.js (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): prettyInternalErrors message for TASK_PROCESS_OOM_KILLED and MAYBE_OOM_KILLED linking to machines docs.
    
    Search phrasings: trigger.dev exceeding the machine's memory limit; TASK_PROCESS_OOM_KILLED machine preset
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
