Unrelated note: you need to assign self = [super initWithWindowName: …].

- (NSManagedObjectContext *)managedObjectContext
{
   return [[self document] managedObjectContext];

If you're doing this why do you have an ivar?

In the running application the auxiliary panel displays properly but an error message is produced: "Cannot perform operation without a managed object context".

Because you have a managedObjectContext ivar, you never change its value so it defaults to nil, and +[NSObject(NSKeyValueCoding) accessInstanceVariablesDirectly] returns YES, -[AuxPanelController objectForKey:@"managedObjectContext"] will always return nil. Ditch the ivar.
