Not sure if it's for every package, but should be just
"http://mirrors.ctan.org/"; .. data.ctan.path .. ".zip"
in scripts.ctan.details.
E.g. from https://ctan.org/json/2.0/pkg/lm:
ctan.path = /fonts/lm
=> zip url = http://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/lm.zip
I think it may be better to get packages from TeX Live. They are already
"built" (although this is probably not necessary for packages that
ConTeXt is interested in) and split into documentation, sources and
runtime files.
The TeXLive database:
http://mirrors.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb
or
http://mirrors.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb.xz
E.g:
name lm
category Package
revision 58637
shortdesc Latin modern fonts in outline formats
relocated 1
longdesc The Latin Modern family of fonts consists of 72 text fonts and
[...]
docfiles size=657
RELOC/doc/fonts/lm/GUST-FONT-LICENSE.TXT
RELOC/doc/fonts/lm/MANIFEST-Latin-Modern.TXT
[...]
runfiles size=10645
RELOC/fonts/afm/public/lm/lmb10.afm
RELOC/fonts/afm/public/lm/lmbo10.afm
[...]
Then:
http://mirrors.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/lm.tar.xz
http://mirrors.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/lm.doc.tar.xz
Some packages also have "srcfiles" and the source files tar:
http://mirrors.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/X.source.tar.xz
PS: To be frank I didn't manage to even run the mtx-ctan script, seems
like a problem with locating libs-imp-curl.lmt, although util-jsn.lua is
fine and is also "require"d.

Surely I am missing something or it is because of my weird setup, and I
always get lost in the resolvers... Quickly tried Aditya's Arch Linux
package and it ends similarly:
