I’m programming my vex iq bot and when I raise the arm with the controller (not autonomous), I need the motor to hold when I release the button. I’m using Modkit

That is standard IQ robot Behavior. You shouldn’t have to do anything. Those motors have been smart for years…

You need to use the SetMotorHolding block for that motor and make sure it is set to on. It isn’t on by default.
You only need set it once for any given motor at the start of the program.
