SKILL.md

Three CLIs exist. Ask the user which one if unsure.

| dbt Core | Python venv | pip show dbt-core or uv pip show dbt-core | | dbt Fusion | /.local/bin/dbt or dbtf | Faster and has stronger SQL comprehension | | dbt Cloud CLI | /.local/bin/dbt | Go-based, runs on platform |

Common setup: Core in venv + Fusion at /.local/bin. Running dbt uses Core. Use dbtf or /.local/bin/dbt for Fusion.
