You can see how m2e "maps" your plugin execution to Eclipse workspace build in project properties, under Maven, Lifecycle Mapping. Check that it says mapping=execute and source=maven-plugin there. You can also enable debug log and see if m2e logs anything interesting in .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration/.
Beware that there is generally no good way to integrate maven plugin execution in Eclipse workspace build. BuildContext you are trying to use does not clean obsolete generated files in some cases. There is also takari incrementalbuild library, which is very difficult to use correctly.
