Hi Karl, I have created a new user "myname" on my local machine
and it plays only the commands I have executed
I will try to be as clear as possible in reproducing my problem:

Now set auxtree for project
$ mkdir -p ~/mypath/myfolder/tex/latex
$ echo "\def\TAT{Test auxtrees}" > ~/mypath/myfolder/tex/latex/mysty.sty
$ cat ~/mypath/myfolder/tex/latex/mysty.sty
\def\TAT{Test auxtrees}
$ tlmgr conf auxtrees --conffile ~/mypath/texmf.cnf add ~/mypath/myfolder/
$ tlmgr conf auxtrees --conffile ~/mypath/texmf.cnf show
List of auxiliary texmf trees:
/home/myname/mypath/myfolder/
So far ConText is still working, but, I can't access `mysty.sty`
$ kpsewhich mysty.sty
$ cat ~/mypath/texmf.cnf
TEXMFAUXTREES = /home/myname/mypath/myfolder/,
$ kpsewhich -all texmf.cnf
/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf.cnf
/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf
For the system to detect my `texmf.cnf`, I need to configure the variable
$TEXMFCNF
(I do not have permission to write outside my account, I can only modify the
ones under "~/")
$ export TEXMFCNF=~/mypath:
$ echo $TEXMFCNF
/home/myname/mypath:
$ kpsewhich -all texmf.cnf
/home/myname/mypath/texmf.cnf
/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf.cnf
/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf
$ kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFCNF
/home/myname/mypath:
$ kpsewhich mysty.sty
/home/myname/mypath/myfolder/tex/latex/mysty.sty
So far everything OK, (pdf/lua)latex works fine, but ConText fails:
$ context --version

When ConText works OK, this is the line you are looking for:
mkiv lua stats > used config file:
selfautoparent:/texmfcnf.lua;selfautoparent:/texmf-dist/web2c/texmfcnf.lua
When I add 'export' it fails and throws:
resolvers | resolving | looking for regular 'texmfcnf.lua' on weird path
'/home/myname/mypath:' from specification '/home/myname/mypath:'
resolvers | resolving | looking for fallback 'contextcnf.lua' on weird
path '/home/myname/mypath:' from specification '/home/myname/mypath:'
Here I am lost, I don't know if the problem is the use of `export` (that the
line is mistyped) or the `texmfcnf.lua` file must be copied in some path for
ConText to find it.
Best for all
Pablo
