in this wiki also note that biju cloak only appear when enter Kurama mode but doesn't tell me that SPSM has to be in Kurama form only Well it's not "canon" but to me, that seems to be Six Paths Sage Mode (which includes both Kurama and Sage Mode). It's not clear if the 9 Biju are an essential part of it or not. However in 673 Naruto dons the "biju" cloak that seems to be a chakra mode of all tailed beasts (hence why it's different). Naruto only seems to don the regular Kurama cloak in Gaiden and The Last indicating he lost the Biju power, though he does seem to use the "regular" Sage mode. It's not clear either if he has the full 6P sage mode powers when he's in that mode in Gaiden or The Last, which only adds to the confusion.

A good case can be made that it's not the full power of the Six Paths Sage Mode. Check 677 page 7: Naruto creates six Rasenshuriken without any clones or chakra arms. In Gaiden Naruto uses chakra arms. This suggests at least some of the powers (and judging how Rasenshuriken has developed, i'd say it's the Six Paths Sage power) are gone.
