Description
If you have installed Torus globally (using `brew install` or `npm install -g`), and then install torus locally as a package in your `package.json`. If the versions between the two get out of sync they'll step on one another resulting in a user always being asked to login.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the conflict between globally installed Torus and the local package when their versions differ, using both the Homebrew or npm installation paths described. Trace how the CLI selects or invokes the global and local installations, then verify that mismatched versions no longer cause repeated login prompts.
