Official FAQ
- Both abilities are optional; you may do either or both or neither.
- You only gain a Gold if you actually trashed an Action or Victory card from your hand; you only gain an Augur if you actually trashed Acolyte.
- Gaining an Augur will give you whichever Augur is on top of the pile currently, even if that's another Acolyte.

Trivia
Preview
Acolyte can turn stuff into Gold, but also can turn itself into whatever's on top of the Augurs pile - another Acolyte, or a better card (or hey, sometimes an Herb Gatherer).
Secret History
Acolyte was briefly a Lookout variant where you draw the cards, ala an Adventures outtake; then for a long time it was the final card but with the upgrading removed, when I removed it everywhere else.
Previous outtake
Near the beginning there was a super-Lookout - +3 Cards +1 Action, trash a card, discard a card, put a card from your hand on your deck. It was beloved and also cwazy. I watered it down some and then got rid of it.
