When you run Go CLI and it can not recognize the command it looks for other binaries with the name "go". If it matches something it will execute it with given arguments. Otherwise the error will be thrown.

If it works differently read troubleshooting section.

To make Go CLI work its binary should be "on top" of others in the system. In other words: when you type and execute go command it should run Go CLI.
