 ## Use the dbt Cloud CLI
 
 - The dbt Cloud CLI shares the same set of [dbt commands](/reference/dbt-commands) as dbt Core and processes the commands you invoke. 
 - It allows you to use automatic deferral of build artifacts to your Cloud project's production environment.
 - It also supports [project dependencies](/docs/collaborate/govern/project-dependencies), which allows you to depend on another project using the metadata service in dbt Cloud. 
-  - Project dependencies instantly connects to and references (or  `ref`) public models defined in other projects. This means you don't need to execute or analyze these upstream models yourself. Instead, you treat them as an API that returns a dataset.
