Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00037 | $0.01309 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00524 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00262 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00131 |
Grade C, and why
torque:migrate scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Recursive force deletehighDestructive command
rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Migrate to Meridian
Evaluate whether the current project would benefit from upgrading to Meridian and provide a migration path.
What is Meridian?
Meridian is the standalone successor to Torque. Instead of routing between GSD and Superpowers, Meridian IS the system — a SQLite-backed state machine with 39 commands, deterministic resume, quality gates, and remote agent dispatch.
When to Migrate
Signals you've outgrown Torque
Run through this checklist. If 3+ are true, Meridian is the right move.
- Session continuity is painful — you lose context between sessions and
/gsd:resume-workisn't enough - Multi-milestone project — you've completed 1+ milestones and are starting another
- Team coordination — multiple people or AI agents need to work on the project
- You want deterministic resume — same state should produce the exact same prompt every time
- You need board sync — Linear, Jira, or similar needs to stay in sync with phases
- Remote execution — you want to dispatch plans to other machines or agents
- Execution learnings — you want the system to learn from failures and improve over time
- You're fighting the routing — GSD and SP conflict resolution is becoming overhead
Stay with Torque if
- Project is simple (< 3 milestones expected)
- You like GSD and Superpowers separately and just need them coordinated
- You don't need persistent state beyond
.planning/files - Lightweight is a feature, not a limitation
Migration Path
Step 1: Install Meridian
git clone https://github.com/mattjaikaran/meridian.git ~/.claude/skills/meridian
Step 2: Initialize in your project
# In your project directory
# Meridian will detect existing .planning/ and offer to import
Then run /meridian:init — it creates .meridian/state.db and imports existing state.
Step 3: Map your workflow

What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

torque:migrate is a skill published in the GitHub repository mattjaikaran/torque (6 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 1,309 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
