Running project on selected environment using commands

Hi guys,

I searched through the internet to find answer to my problem but could not find anything that would give me clear answer.

I have a project on dbt cloud and four environments, including development env with separate schema for each developer. When I run commands from cloud IDE terminal all changes are executed on development env in developer personal schema. I have configured cloud CLI according to this page: Install dbt Cloud CLI | dbt Developer Hub and when I run commands from VS Code terminal all my changes are alse executed in personal developer schema.

Currently, only way to execute model code on different environments is to use job runs.
Is there a way to run models from CLI (or any other way that could allow me to run commands on selected env “by hand”) without the need to create jobs? Or only correcte way is to create job runs for adhoc commands and match them with environemnts?
