## 'pynt' is not recognized

When you install Pynt CLI using `pip`, the output will show the path to the script folder. To prevent the "Pynt not recognized" error when running Pynt, ensure that the Python scripts folder is added to your PATH environment variable. This issue usually arises when the pip scripts folder is not included in your PATH.

To find Pynt location path after installation:

```bash
pip show pyntcli
```

## Unable to pull the image from docker pull ghcr.io/pynt-io/pynt

If you're unable to pull the Pynt image from Docker:

```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/pynt-io/pynt
```

#### Possible Issue:

This might be due to organizational policies or using a private registry. In such cases, override the registry URI:

```bash
export IMAGE=<Your Private Registry URI>
```
