Every chip stays — grouped by meaning, coded by colour

The problem isn’t too many chips, it’s that they’re all the same weight and colour, so nothing stands out and tenders get lost. The fix: a colour-coded left spine for urgency, the same chips always in the same three clusters (Decision · Dates · Money), and a tinted “Closing this week” group that floats the urgent ones to the top.
