OSX terminal commands "brctl evict" and "brctl download": Incompatible with Box?

The "Download Now" and "Remove Download" feature built into OSX's Finder is apparently an iCloud function that allows users to download and remove synced iCloud files in the Finder to return them to cloud-only.

When Box is installed on the user's machine, these contextual menu commands operate the same way and also allow the user to download or un-download files. I was able to find terminal commands that normally are supposed to achieve this from the command line:

brctl download [FilePathHere]
brctl evict [FilePathHere]

However, these commands fail when the folder is a Box shared folder:

brctl: Unable to evict item at path '[FilePathHere]': Error Domain=BRCloudDocsErrorDomain Code=6 "Path is 
    outside of any CloudDocs app library, will never sync" UserInfo={NSDescription=Path is outside of any 
    CloudDocs app library, will never sync, NSFilePath=[FilePathHere]}

Do I need to install the Box CLI in order to control these functions in a different way? Or is there another solution?
