Research direction

Start by reproducing the worker error and trace the ObjectID value through bson's objectid.js, sc-formatter/index.js, and the broker publish path shown in the stack trace. Determine which published payload causes serialization to reject the ObjectId, then verify that publishing it no longer throws or respawns the worker.
