There is generic machinery for adding values of various forms to theories so that future theories and ML code can see them. The smoothest instantiation is in ThmSetData (in src/1) which allows storage of sets of theorems in a “2D matrix” indexed by theory-name and set-name. For example, the automatic rewrites behind the “simp” attribute are implemented this way.
The storage of grammar updates is handled with the same technology. A hacky way to store terms would be to use theorems with conclusions of the form K T (myterm) and to then use ThmSetData. A better way, which, now that I’ve been prodded, I may implement soon, would be to write a TermSetData. I hope this helps. I’m happy to discuss the details of this relatively undocumented feature further if you want more help.

I tried to achieve this using a :term list ref on the ML level. However, it is the case that if I add some term in theory A and inspect the list in theory B, where A is in the theory graph before B, all elements added in A are not in the list anymore. Can someone give me a hint on why this is the case or tell me a better way to "share" a list of terms from a theory with theories depending on it?
