So Pirate Ship was probably missed too... excluding that infinite solution, Forager can get up to $13 $14 without Black Market in the kingdom, and up to however many kingdom treasures exist (I'm too lazy to go count) + $5 with it.
Ah okay, here's where you mention no Black Market. Sorry about that.

Also, I just noticed how your avatar matches your username. Cool stuff.

No worries, since I was attempting to solve a puzzle that already had to be revised to outlaw Vault/Secret Chamber/Storeroom, and Pirate Ship/Band of Misfits, I might as well exclude the ultimate puzzle destroyer (or creator...) of Black Market.  But mostly I was just being lazy (so much so that I didn't even get the lazy solution right).

Aha, I knew there were probably a few people around here that would get my obscure programming references.

Copper, if you played a lot of kc-coppersmiths before.

Edit: sorry, not an action

(1) At the start of your turn, you have 2 of me and 3 coppers.  You play the first one of me.  You play the second one of me, which you knew would be a useless play, other than that it highly annoys your opponent.  You enter your buy phase with $3, 1 buy, and an irritated opponent.  What am I?

(2) I am in your hand, but I am neither a Treasure, nor Action, nor Victory, nor Curse card.  What am I?  (There's only 1 of these that i can think of, but there may be more.)

(3) I can make playing 1 copper once give you $2 instead of just $1, but I am not Coppersmith (nor am I Counterfeit, because you only play the copper once).  What am I?

(As always, I've done my best to have 1 and only 1 answer for each card, but there is almost always more valid answers that I hadn't thought of.)

(1). scrying pool, where the only other cards in deck are KC and possession? EDIT: and you put the card back on their deck with 1st SP.
(2). Hovel
(3). Bank

1. Tournament, SP having already drawn your deck and replaced a card on your opponent's deck, Great hall with drawn deck, familiar with drawn deck and no curses, spy with drawn deck and replaced card on your opponent's deck, etc. Tournament is probably the one you were going for though

(1) Either two tributes with only two action cards in your opponent's deck or 2 scouts with 4 non-victory cards on top of your deck.

Since there are obviously many ways to interpret question (1), here is the answer I had in mind:

Tournament.  I play one, opponent reveals a Province.  I play second one, opponent facepalm's.

I am in your hand.  On your turn, you play 1 action card -- card X -- and nothing else.  I can be revealed by playing X.  Without revealing your entire hand, X can be 3 and only 3 action cards (i.e. no Shanty Town, Menagerie, Poor House, etc.).  What am I?  What are the 3 cards you can reveal me with?

No shenanigans (Possession, Golem to play more actions, etc.)

Rats, with a hand full of rats
Copper, revealed from cutpurse
Any victory card, revealed by Bureaucrat

Therefore, X is Rats, Cutpurse or Bureaucrat.

No.  "I" am 1 card -- not a different card for each of the 3 actions.  Plus, puzzle says it's your turn and I am in your hand, so I can't be revealed with Cutpurse or Bureaucrat because those reveal cards in other players' hands.

Province can be revealed by Tournament, Explorer, or Ambassador.

Fortress, because i was processioned, so I was brought into play, then trashed, so put into hand, and then can be played again.

I let you keep cards that would have been trashed.
I let you save cards 'till you want them dispatched.
Combos you wouldn't think of are simply a snap
But the combo most obvious is surely a trap.

Scheme. The first line is a reference to hermit, the third one probably KCs or conspirators, and the last one is treasure map. The second line is just a generality.

Wait… if in your buy phase, this is a Gold, does that mean you can buy this card for only $6? Definitely OP.

I am an Action card.  I am in your hand.  I am NOT a Reaction card.  I do, however, reveal myself when you play a different Action card, and then something happens to me (the "something happens to me" part is to rule out things like Shanty Town and Menagerie).  That is, I am an Action card that is "triggered" by something else, even though I am not a Reaction card.  I think that's weird, which is why I'm making a puzzle out of it.  Maybe this card should really be a Reaction card, not sure.  And is there more than 1 answer?  (I can only think of 1 answer.)

Treasure Map?  Though it is technically not revealed, and it's not so much being triggered as it is part of the resolution of the first Treasure Map.

Any action card that can be returned to the supply by Ambassador?

Probably not your intended solution though.
