So… i tried to install the standalone “po” so I wouldn’t have to use the web for development… It didn’t work and now my particle-cli tells me
“Please reinstall the CLI again using npm install -g particle-cli”. When I run it, I get no errors, but it still doesn’t allow me to continue… I get the error everytime.
Oh, yeah, I’m installing everything on a MAC
The easiest way to fix this is:
Remove any old installation. If you get a command not found error, just go to the next step.
sudo npm uninstall -g particle-cli
Then install using the Particle CLI installer:
bash <( curl -sL https://particle.io/install-cli )
If you still get an error running the particle command, do:
which particle
If it returns one in /usr/local/bin/particle, remove it:
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/particle
There are additional instructions here if necessary:

I tried "bash <( curl -sL https://particle.io/install-cli )" - it came back immediately without processing anythng. SO.... I copied the https into my browser and got something else so I entered "bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spark/particle-cli-wrapper/master/installer/unix/install-cli )" it's working on that now...

This should also work:
Edit: If the problem is already resolved you won’t need this.
Have you tried this?
sudo npm uninstall -g --unsafe-perm particle-cli
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm particle-cli
