So, the presence of Junk Dealer essentially allows you to buy from the trash? Not sure I like that.

Recruiter allows you to get Duchies for $4 without putting them in your deck, unless Servant Mat contents do not go into your deck at the end of the game. Either way, specify.

Enchanter seems a bit pricey to me, since I rarely find that a single player has an overwhelming majority of any action card, so much so that they would be willing to spend $5 just to (temporarily) power up that card. And why not just say, “When you play a card on whose pile the hex token is, each other player gains a Curse”? After all, there’s only one hex token, right?

Overall, great ideas. Interesting concept and well-implemented.

The idea is that instead of buying a Witch, a player can buy a card to turn their opening terminal action into a curser. It's better for deck efficiency, but it's a bit more precarious. I wanted to limit it to terminals or else it would be too easy to spam, but it's worth playtesting.

I just thought of this: some Kingdom cards could have "In games using this" abilities like "In games using this, at the start of your turn, +1 buy" or something. Could be interesting.

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

This thread has some ideas.

That is essentially what a lot of these cards are. A rewording of Junk Collector could be, "In games using this, you may buy cards from the trash, or you may spend a buy and any number of $ during your buy phase to trash that number of cards from your hand."

Masterpiece and Cache could easily have been like this, but the wording would have been clunky.
