    I think Actions will not serve you well here, so you could ask for help on the Scripting Forum. (edited)

    Photoshop Scripting

    But you may want to clarify and post a meaningful screenshot to illustrate the Layer structure.

    You would need something like a recursive script function that can process objects like documents  and groups to add layers into groups if it is not there, I would not think it would be fast. Perhaps you could write a compiled plug-in
