Strictly worse than the original Scout is really bad. At least the original was non-terminal.

That's actually not that bad of an idea, something like this:

Title
$5 Project
When you gain a second copy of a non-victory card in a turn, you may gain another copy.

Sale is deliberately broken, especially in the case of split piles (gladiator and two fortunes for $6) and castles.
Title is ok, though, to my taste, too expensive ($3-4 would be fine)

Reveal the top three cards of a pile, and then pay for any two of them which do not cost strictly less than the third.*

If you do, gain all three.

* - In some cases, the amounts you may choose to pay may fail to be a single unique amount if it's a fan card split pile where cards cost Potions, $, and/or <>.

That's actually not that bad of an idea, something like this:

When you gain a second copy of a non-victory card in a turn, you may gain another copy.

Yeah obviously as you worded it if fits this forum. Also I forgot to actually put a title.

I still like the old wording better:

"This is this card until it leaves play."

Action-Duration-Attack
Cost:
Choose an Action card from the Supply. That is this card until someone gains it.

The Attack type is just to make Moat interactions really confusing.

So it's a one-time Summon that doesn't gain you the card?  Seems pretty bad, but yet could probably be used in edge cases.

Wait, now it's a Smithy with +Buy for $2...  X-D

Maybe it could be a "terminal Pouch"?  (Or terminal Candlestick Maker possibly)

EDIT:  "Terminal Candlestick Maker" fits the general theme for "Guild" variants in Dominion, so that's my final suggestion.
