Visual Studio (VS) Code extensions enhance command line tools by adding extra functionalities. The dbt Cloud CLI is fully compatible with dbt Core, however, it doesn't support some dbt Core APIs required by certain tools, for example, VS Code extensions.
To use these extensions, such as dbt-power-user, with the dbt Cloud CLI, you can install it using Homebrew (along with dbt Core) and create an alias to run the dbt Cloud CLI as `dbt-cloud`. This allows dbt-power-user to continue to invoke dbt Core under the hood, alongside the dbt Cloud CLI.
You can use extensions like [dbt-power-user](https://www.dbt-power-user.com/) with the dbt Cloud CLI by following these steps:
- [Install](/docs/cloud/cloud-cli-installation?install=brew) it using Homebrew along with dbt Core.
- [Create an alias](#faqs) to run the dbt Cloud CLI as `dbt-cloud`.
This setup allows dbt-power-user to continue to work with dbt Core in the background, alongside the dbt Cloud CLI.
