Chris Hendrickson 198d65b7e2 Update stale documentation (DEW-0009)

- index.md: rewrite architecture section to reflect DewToolCommand mixin,
  CommandRegistry, and per-package config extension pattern
- config.md: update default columns to backlog/doing/done
- features/mcp.md: replace McpToolProvider references with DewToolCommand,
  add all 12 tools to the table, add link types table
- features/kanban.md: replace stub with full docs covering storage layout,
  ticket format, CLI command reference, link types, and config

Dew Documentation

Welcome to the documentation for the Dew project management tool!

Configuration — Configuring Dew via dew.yaml

Features

Kanban Board — Visualize and manage tasks in a column-based workflow
MCP Server — AI agent integration via the Model Context Protocol

Package Architecture

Dew is structured as a Dart workspace with the following packages:

Package	Description
`packages/cli`	The `dew` command-line tool. Wires all packages together at startup.
`packages/core`	Shared foundation: `DewCommand`, `DewToolCommand` mixin, `CommandRegistry`, and `DewConfig`.
`packages/kanban`	Kanban board logic. Each command automatically registers itself as an MCP tool.
`packages/mcp`	The MCP server. Collects tools from `CommandRegistry` and serves them over stdio.

How commands become MCP tools

Every CLI command that mixes in DewToolCommand is automatically registered as an MCP tool — no separate registration needed. The mixin derives the JSON Schema for the tool's input from the command's own ArgParser, so argument definitions are written exactly once.

ArgParser definition
      │
      ├─► dew kanban create   (human CLI)
      └─► kanban_create_ticket (MCP tool with schema)

Config architecture

DewConfig in core is a thin wrapper around the raw YAML map. Feature packages add typed accessors via Dart extensions:

dew_kanban defines KanbanDewConfig — exposes context.config.kanban
dew_mcp defines McpDewConfig — exposes context.config.mcp

This keeps feature-specific config classes out of core while leaving all call sites unchanged.
