I am running context minimals and Asymptote on Windows.This example used to
work in the past, but it seems to have stopped working. Is there anything
that has changed?
\usemodule[filter]
\defineexternalfilter
[ASY]
[filtercommand={asy -tex "context" -outformat pdf
-outname \externalfilteroutputfile},
output=\externalfilterbasefile.pdf,
cache=yes,
readcommand=\ReadImage,]
\define[1]\ReadImage{\externalfigure[#1]}
\starttext
Testing if we can include an asymptote image
\startplacefigure[location={here}, title={An Asymptote figure}]
\startASY
unitsize(1cm);
draw((-.1,0) -- (2,0), arrow=Arrow(TeXHead));
draw((0,-.1) -- (0,2), arrow=Arrow(TeXHead));
draw((0,0) .. (1,1) .. (2,sqrt(2)));
\stopASY
\stopplacefigure
\stoptext

I uploaded a new version of the filter module yesterday, but the error
below seems unrelated.

Short answer: Change `filtercommand` to `filter`.
Long answer: The standard way to specify the command to be executed in
each snippet is to use `filtercommand`. This should be the FULL command
(as you would run on the command line). So in case of asymptote, it should
be:
filtercommand={asy -tex context -outformat pdf -outname
\externalfilteroutputfile\space \externalfilterinputfile}
Since many commands are of the form:
command-name <options> input-name
a shortcut is provided in the filter module. Instead of saying
...
filtercommand={command-name <options> input-name},
...
you can say
filter={command-name <options>}
In the example that you posted, you are using `filtercommand=....` but the
input filename is missing, so asymptote launches an interactive promt.
