Executing 'mtxrun' without arguments shows the list of commands. There one finds:

mtxrun          | ConTeXt TDS Runner Tool 1.30
mtxrun          |
mtxrun          | --script              run an mtx script (lua prefered method) (--noquotes), no script gives list

Doing 'mtxrun --script' I expected to see a list of the available scripts. But this command prints nothing. Is this something to be repaired?

No, there is no such list. Having such a list would be comparable to

   $ kpsewhich --format=tex

returning a list of all tex files in your tree to choose from: mtxrun
can run *any* lua script, including anything in the current directory.

However, the 'canonical' mtxrun scripts all live in scripts/context/lua,
and have names like mtx-<script>.lua

Best wishes,
Taco
