Getting error: /bin/sh scriptcs: command not found

I'm using Visual Studio Code for Mac, running extension CodeRunner. I've got a simple program:

using System;
namespace HelloWorldApplication {
class HelloWorld {
   static void Main(string[] args) {
      Console.WriteLine("hellowol");
   }
 }
}

When I run it using the play button in the upper right hand corner I get the following error:

/bin/sh scriptcs: command not found

Then

[Done] exited with code=127 in 0.008 seconds

The program does not show the desired output.

EDIT: Much thanks to @VonC. His approach worked. Pro tip for anyone: install scriptcs using

brew install scriptcs

Try "brew install scriptcs" in your terminal.

Considering the prerequisite for filipw/vscode-scriptcs-runner is:

scriptcs should be installed on your machine.

Make sure to launch VSCode from a shell session where scriptcs is in your $PATH (meaning which scriptcs does not return an empty output)
