I figured out quite an easy fix for this a while after posting. Numerous rounds of testing have proven it out. I asked for the extra prompt to be changed from "ID:" to "ID>". This made my code think the login was all good. From there, I added code (through trial and error) to handle the extra prompt after the code block in my original message, like so:

$port = $cli->port;

if ( defined($port) ) {
    print "\tSSH connection to server ($host) established!\n";
} else {
    print "\tSSH connection to server ($host) could not be established
+... Exiting program.\n";
    exit;
}

$output = $cli->cmd("");
$output = $cli->cmd("IJAF");
$output = $cli->cmd("clear");
$output = "";

Thanks as usual, Monks!!
