(untested)

better make a dedicated list:

   \definelist
     [mylist]

and configure that one (so no \framed in write)

   \setuplist
     [mychapter]
     [alternative=command,
      command=\MyChapterList]

with something

   \def\ChapterList#1#2#3%
     {\framed
        [frame=off,
         align={right,broad,nothyphenated},
         width=0.8\textwidth,
         height=2\baselineskip,
         offset=none]
        {#2}}

your title command

   \def\KomplexTitel#1#2#3%
     {\title{#1}\subject{#2}\writetolist[mychapter]{}{#3}}

   (next version will contain a direct write command, which avoids an 
interfering node)

call lists like:

   \placelist[chapter,mychapter]

etc
