Summary

New functions/fish_prompt.fish — Catppuccin Mocha nim-style two-line fallback prompt with zero external dependencies. Activates automatically when Starship is absent or C3 overrides (__fish_config_op_overrides) are disabled. Shows user@host:path, git branch in pink, vi-mode indicator, venv, and background jobs; connector lines switch green↔red on exit status.
New functions/fish_mode_prompt.fish — empty stub that suppresses fish's default vi-mode prefix (which would double-print the indicator alongside the one built into the fallback prompt).
Overhauled functions/fish_right_prompt.fish — fixed $status capture (was being clobbered before it was read), removed blanket C3 guard so the right prompt renders in all modes, removed Docker context and nerd-font dependency. Now always shows: ✘ N in Catppuccin red when the last command failed (hidden on success), followed by a dim timestamp.
Docs updated — new ### Catppuccin Fallback Prompt subsection in docs/fish-config.md, component reference and starship entry updated, docs/fish-config.index extended with prompt/theme keywords, README overview updated.

Manual Verification

Starship path (no regression): Open a new fish session with starship installed. Confirm the powerline prompt still renders. After running false, confirm the right prompt shows ✘ 1 HH:MM:SS; after true, confirm only the timestamp shows.
Fallback prompt — no starship: Run fish -c 'functions -e fish_prompt; source ~/.config/fish/functions/fish_prompt.fish; source ~/.config/fish/functions/fish_mode_prompt.fish; true; fish_prompt; echo ---; false; fish_prompt'. Confirm two-line output with green connectors on the first call and red connectors on the second, and (feat/catppuccin-fallback-prompt) in pink on the first line.
Fallback prompt — C3 disabled: set -U __fish_config_op_overrides 0, open a new shell, verify the Catppuccin fallback prompt appears. Reset with set -Ue __fish_config_op_overrides.
Right prompt always renders: With C3 disabled (set -U __fish_config_op_overrides 0), run false and confirm the right prompt still shows ✘ 1 HH:MM:SS. Reset afterward.
fish_mode_prompt is silent: Run fish -c 'source ~/.config/fish/functions/fish_mode_prompt.fish; fish_mode_prompt | wc -c' and confirm output is 0.
