Description

Problem Related to the Feature

Currently we need to manually clone and install param after running pip install . This causes chakra_trace_link to complain.

Proposed Solution

When running pip install . under this repo, automatically install param.
At least, try/catch the module error in trace_link.py and point the users to install param manually

Research direction

The issue names trace_link.py and the pip install . entry point; start by locating the repository's package dependency metadata and the use of param in trace_link.py. Done means a fresh pip install . provides param, or the fallback gives users a clear manual-install instruction.
