Do I need mtxrun?  If so, where are the sources and how do I build

Yes, you need it, but it’s just an alias to luametatex:

~/context/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin $ ll

lrwxr-xr-x  1 hraban  staff    10B 22 Feb 18:47 mtxrun@ -> luametatex
-rw-r--r--  1 hraban  staff   685K 22 Feb 18:47 mtxrun.lua

The mtxrun in ~/context/bin is only used during installation.

What else do I need in ~/context/tex?  Currently I have

.
├── texmf-context
│   └── web2c
│       └── contextcnf.lua
└── texmf-freebsd-amd64
     └── bin
         ├── context -> luametatex
         ├── context.lua
         ├── luametatex
         ├── mtxrun -> luametatex
         └── mtxrun.lua

I guess you’re lacking the main distribution package.

My installation (tree -dL 4, partly shortened):

    ├── texmf-cache (necessary, but auto-created?)
