By default, Cloud IDE ships with built-in plugins that are managed by Acquia. Therefore, you cannot install or remove them.
On the contrary, you can install extensions from the Open VSX registry, which is a vendor neutral, open source marketplace for VS Code extensions.
Note
Acquia does not endorse or support third-party extensions from the Open VSX registry.
