[DOC] fix TS run chroma command (chroma-core#6406)
![Screenshot 2026-02-11 at 12.32.18 PM.png](https://app.graphite.com/user-attachments/assets/12e8209b-9ba9-4a7c-bce3-4405da46204e.png) Users are confused when they try to run only `chroma run` after installing. This command does not work because the chroma command was not added to the PATH. Without installing locally, you need to use `npx`, `pnpm exec`, etc.
