+# SYNOPSIS
+#   fish_mode_prompt
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#   Empty override. Suppresses fish's built-in vi-mode prefix ([N]/[I]/etc.)
+#   that would prepend to the prompt line and break the two-line nim layout.
+#   Vi-mode display is handled inside fish_prompt itself.
+#
+# EXAMPLE
+#   # Rendered automatically by fish; not called directly.
