https://go.dev/ref/mod#go-install

Executables (main packages) are installed to the directory named by the GOBIN environment variable, which defaults to $GOPATH/bin or $HOME/go/bin if the GOPATH environment variable is not set.

In order to make the command become available in bash shell, you should add that directory to the PATH environment variable.

@ZekeLu Thank you! I am using asdf for Golang version control, so $GOPATH is not exposed to the shell and I had to add the following to my .zshrc after the line that initializes asdf:

# This line is already in the file if you have asdf installed
. /usr/local/opt/asdf/libexec/asdf.sh 

# This is the line adds $GOPATH/bin to $PATH
PATH=$(go env GOPATH)/bin:$PATH
