Sorry, no info concerning ConTeXT.

You don't have to use proprietary tools. An easy way to create ebooks
from Markdown files (or other sources) is Pandoc. https://pandoc.org/

I produce all of my ebooks in this way. In most cases they validate
without errors. If there are some errors though I use Calibre to fix
them manually.
