Well, you can do an implementation version dependency (I do not know if
those are available in maven based plugins), though that really binds
your plugin to a specific NetBeans version.
As Maven plugin is not public it is hard to implement plugins outside
NetBeans to it.
There are two possibilities:
1. Ask NetBeans team to make the Maven plugin public.
2. Create a PR to add your plugin as a friend to the Maven plugin.
I think option 1 would be preferred. Though even then you would need to
wait for NetBeans 28.

What are you supposed to do to use maven apis from a plugin? Is it
possible?
