This if an iffy one. I could go both ways on it. However, in the
spirit of the game I'd say using Fuchi forgoes you having a Shadowrun
phase that turn.

I believe attack programs like Black Hammer are to be only used during
your own Legwork phase. (Kinda like playing a Wanted or Bar Fight.)

For the most part, yes.

See above, as I believe the attack would have to be performed during
your own turn.

Yes, you could have H-man 2057 and up to four "vanilla" H-men out at a
given time. (8 vanilla's if your opponent also had four on the table.
