imccyu 2a48b31306 docs: rewrite group maps for the examples/ relocation
Add the packages/examples/ group README, drop the moved packages from the
core/ and ui/ group READMEs, and add the examples/ row to the packages
hierarchy table and the repo-layout in AGENTS.md.

# ui/ — editor/client integration surfaces
Integrations that expose the agent to an external editor or client. These are **product** packages: a real surface a user drives the harness through.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
| `acp/` | Agent Client Protocol bridge: serves the agent to an ACP editor (Zed) over JSON-RPC stdio | (drives `ctx.agents`/`ctx.sessions`) |
| `user-approval/` | One-shot user-approval mechanism, closed outcome vocabulary, audit events, and per-session approval policy | `ctx.approval` |
| `permission/` | User-facing permission presets (`workspace-write`/`danger-full-access`): one product-level select bundling the sandbox-mode and approval-policy knobs, written through to their session events | `ctx.permission` |
| `user-interaction/` | Abstract human question/answer seam used by UI-backed confirmation tools | `ctx.userInteraction` |
| `tool-ask-user/` | Model-facing `ask_user_question` tool over `ctx.userInteraction` | (registers on `ctx.tools`) |
| `stdio/` | Terminal readline channel over `ctx.agents`, `session/event`, and `ctx.userInteraction`; agent lifecycle stays with app/developer code | (drives `ctx.agents`) |
| `jsonrpc/` | Stdio JSON-RPC server for out-of-process SDK clients | (drives `ctx.agents`) |
| `app-boot/` | Shared boot glue for the app bins: `.env` loading, fail-loud Loader guards, snapshot-aware config resolution, the settle-the-tree boot sequence | (library for the bins) |
A UI integration is a client-driver plugin, not a loop change and not a capability seam: it consumes the existing `agent/*` event taxonomy and the `dsh-agent` factory. The `jsonrpc` plugin is the SDK-client sibling of the `acp` bridge (a JSON-RPC server over `ctx.agents` for out-of-process SDK clients rather than editors). The [`stdio`](stdio/README.md) plugin is the unstructured readline analogue of the `acp` bridge; app bundles and SDK projects compose it explicitly with the services and tools their product profile selects.
`user-approval`, `user-interaction`, and `tool-ask-user` live here because asking a human is a UI-backed product affordance, not part of the providerless core spine. `user-approval` owns the one-shot `ctx.approval` decision mechanism and its policy tier; answerers remain with their UI channel owners. `user-interaction` remains provider-neutral (`ctx.userInteraction`), while `tool-ask-user` is its model-facing consumer and the app/bridge packages provide concrete providers.
The runnable app bundles that bake these bridges into boot bins — the stdio chat app, the ACP server app, and the JSON-RPC SDK-runtime bin — live in [`examples/`](../examples/README.md) (`stdio-demo`, `acp-demo`, `jsonrpc-demo`), each composed over the [`agent-spine-demo`](../examples/agent-spine-demo/README.md) bundle. `ui/` keeps the reusable bridge/channel plugins and the `app-boot` glue; each front door owns its stdout policy, and a leaf `cordis.yml` supplies backends and optional tools.
