Java Local Development Environments Advanced Tooling Finishing TreeStory

My code works in intelli J not in the challenge for the Tree House Story. Prompter class does not exist?

''''java package com.teamtreehouse;

import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.List;

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

    Prompter prompter = new Prompter();
    prompter.storyTemplate();
    prompter.run();
}

}

Really like to move on but this challenge is bugging me. Could someone please help.
