Bug Description
$ snap help find
Usage:
snap find [find-OPTIONS] [<query>]
The find command queries the store for available packages in the stable channel.
With the --private flag, which requires the user to be logged-in to the store
(see 'snap help login'), it instead searches for private snaps that the user
has developer access to, either directly or through the store's collaboration
feature.
A green check mark (given colour and unicode support) after a publisher name
indicates that the publisher has been verified.
[find command options]
--private Search private snaps
--narrow Only search for snaps in “stable”
--section= Restrict the search to a given section

So... does snap find only search the stable channel (as the description says), and if so how do I search for snaps in the edge channel? Or does it search all channels and I can specify --narrow to only search stable, and the description is wrong?

Whoops, we forgot to update that when we added "wide" searches!
By default it'll search all channels. You can make it only search stable with --narrow.
