Can't install xata cli

When running the command listed on the docs
npm install -g @xata.io/cli
npm install -g @xata.io/cli
I get the error
The splatting operator '@' cannot be used to reference variables in an expression. '@xata' can be used only as an argument to a command. To reference variables in an expression use '$xata'.
