This command runs on composer-cli. Have you installed it? If not, you can install it using:

npm install -g composer-cli

Now try and run the command. It should work.

If you have already installed composer, then uninstall and re-install:

npm uninstall -g composer-cli

or

npm uninstall -g composer

and then

npm install -g composer-cli
