Issues Installing Buildstockbatch locally

I am trying to install buildstockbatch to run and manage batch simulations of ResStock, by applying the buildstockbatch python library installation method (https://buildstockbatch.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html). To my understanding of the images below, it says that it has installed the library, but when I make an attempt to verify if so by buildstock_local -h, buildstock_local is not defined. Can someone please help me understand where I may have interpreted the installation instructions incorrectly or not have executed something properly?

>>import os
>>os.chdir("Downloads")
>>os.chdir(r"C:\Users\akasha.fobbs\Downloads\buildstockbatch-2023.05.0\buildstockbatch-2023.05.0")

>>pip install -e . --user
Successfully installed buildstockbatch
Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.
WARNING: s3fs 0.4.2 does not provide the extra 'boto3'

>>buildstock_local -h
