Thanks!  Adding @requiresProject false worked like a charm!

 How do I create a plugin that doesn't require a pom.xml?

 Even the hello world described on this page requires it:
 http://maven.apache.org/guides/plugin/guide-java-plugin-development.html

 You get this error if you try to run it where no pom.xml is present.
 [INFO] Cannot execute mojo: sayhi. It requires a project with an
 existing pom.xml, but the build is not using one.

 Surely it must be possible.  mvn help:help is an example of one that
 it lets me run from anywhere.

 Thanks,
 Phillip
