Ok, i have try something. In my view that should work but that didnt work. I don't understand why.

I recall that my purpose is that a contributor can only see "create content" and dont see create folder in web client action menu.

Ok i show what i had done :
in permissionDefinitions.xml

      <!– A collaborator can do anything that an editor and a contributor can do –>
      <permissionGroup name="Collaborator" allowFullControl="false" expose="true">
      <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="AddChildren" type="sys:base"/>
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Editor" type="cm:cmobject" />
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Contributor" type="cm:cmobject" />
      </permissionGroup>
      
      <!– A contributor can create content and then they have full permission on what –>
      <!– they have created - via the permissions assigned to the owner.              –>
      <permissionGroup name="Contributor" allowFullControl="false" expose="true" >
          <!– Contributor is a consumer who can add content, and then can modify via the –>
          <!– owner permissions.                                                      –>
          <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Consumer" type="cm:cmobject"/>   
          <!– Check out requires write permissions so this will not apply to all      –>
          <!– documents.                                                              –>
          <includePermissionGroup type="cm:lockable" permissionGroup="CheckOut"/>
      </permissionGroup>

i had moved "Addchildren" to collaborator
after i had created this in content part :

  <permissionSet type="cm:content" expose="selected">  
      
      <permissionGroup name="AddContent" expose="true" allowFullControl="false" />   
   
    <permission name="CreateContent" expose="false">
         <grantedToGroup permissionGroup="AddChildren"/>
         <grantedToGroup permissionGroup="AddContent"/>         

    </permission>

      <permissionGroup name="Contributor" extends="true" expose="true">
                <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="AddContent" type="cm:content"/>     
      </permissionGroup>  
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

After in browse.jsp in web client i had done that for menu :

<td style="padding-left:4px" align=right>
<%– Quick upload action –%>
<nobr>
<r:permissionEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentNode}" allow="CreateContent" id="eval2">
<a:actionLink value="#{msg.add_content}" image="/images/icons/add.gif" action="addContent" actionListener="#{AddContentWizard.startWizard}" style="white-space:nowrap" id="link3" />
</r:permissionEvaluator>
</nobr>
</td>
<td style="padding-left:4px" width=52>
<%– Create actions menu –%>
<a:menu id="createMenu" itemSpacing="4" label="#{msg.create_options}" image="/images/icons/menu.gif" menuStyleClass="moreActionsMenu" style="white-space:nowrap">
<r:permissionEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentNode}" allow="CreateContent" id="eval3">
<a:actionLink value="#{msg.create_content}" image="/images/icons/new_content.gif" id="link3_1" action="createContent" actionListener="#{CreateContentWizard.startWizard}" />
</r:permissionEvaluator>
<r:permissionEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentNode}" allow="CreateChildren" id="eval1">
<a:actionLink value="#{msg.new_space}" image="/images/icons/create_space.gif" action="createSpace" actionListener="#{NewSpaceDialog.startWizard}" id="link1" />
</r:permissionEvaluator>
<r:permissionEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentNode}" allow="CreateChildren" id="eval6">
<a:actionLink value="#{msg.advanced_space_wizard}" image="/images/icons/create_space.gif" action="createAdvancedSpace" actionListener="#{NewSpaceWizard.startWizard}" id="link9" />
</r:permissionEvaluator>
</a:menu>
</td>
