Description

Only release repositories are queried for version-unscoped plugins.

Deploy a plugin (say x-maven-plugin, version 1-SNAPSHOT) to a snapshot repository via mvn -P performRelease deploy.

clear local repository so client has no copy of the snapshot.

Build a project that tries to use the x-maven-plugin but does not specify the plugin's version.

Results in client searching release respository only, does not query the snapshot repository or attempt to merge the metadata in any way.

Is this as designed?

no, its not the right behaviour, but I've seen it work.

I suspect you have <releases><enabled>false on your snapshot repo. That bug is already known, in which case thsi is a dupe. Is that the case?

I think it's fair to have to specify a snapshot version, you shouldn't grab that automagically.
