This happens by default. The only time that you need to call UseCredential on the builder is when you want to override the DefaultAzureCredential that it creates on your behalf. You could also call the chained WithCredential as part of the client registration to override the default credential for just that client.
builder.Services.AddAzureClients(clientBuilder =>
{
clientBuilder
.AddBlobServiceClient(new Uri("https://<account-name>.blob.core.windows.net"))
.WithCredential(new AzureCliCredential());
});
