Conversation
Rewrite the agent-context extension README to read as plain prose instead of a bullet dump, and add the missing install/disable commands (specify extension add/disable/enable agent-context). Add inline example comments to agent-context-config.yml for context_file/context_files.

That section doesn't need to be explained because all information is there in the yml file itself. Removed the below yaml explanations but left in that line to mention the document path.
