Latest status of core model theory?
The following may not be an answer to your question, but I think it is related.
I have taken it from the introduction of a joint work I am doing with James Cummings and Sy Friedman (which has now appe …

Examples of concrete games to apply Borel determinacy to
May look at some of Andrew Marks papers, in particular ``A determinacy approach to Borel combinatorics''.

On the number of complete Boolean algebras
The answer is that there are still $2^\kappa$ many isomorphism types of complete Boolean algebras of power $\kappa$.
This is proved by Shelah, see Building complicated index models and Boolean algebr …

Is it consistent that $2^{(\cdot)}$ is "surjective" on the class of uncountable ordinals?
By Konig's lemma $cf(2^\kappa) > \kappa,$ so for example $\aleph_\omega$ can never be of the form $2^\kappa$ for any $\kappa.$

On the existence of a real which is not set-generic over $L$
Yes, there is indeed such a paper, see Mack Stanley's paper "Coding a generic extension of L".

Could groups be used instead of sets as a foundation of mathematics?
Somehow related to the question is Shelah's paper Interpreting set theory in the endomorphism semi-group of afree algebra or in a category. There are further papers on this direction, see for example …

What is known about the consistency of $2^{\aleph_\alpha} = \aleph_{\alpha+\gamma}$ for all ...
By a result of Patai, $\gamma$ should be finite (this is exercise 5.15 in Jech's book).
For any finite $n>0, H_n$ is consistent, see Merimovich's paper A power function with a fixed finite gap every …

Can $\kappa^\lambda$ be large if $2^\lambda$ is small and $\lambda<\mathrm{cof}(\kappa)$?
It is consistent that such a pair exists, see my paper Singular cofinality conjecture and a question of Gorelic.
To show that some large cardinals are needed, suppose for example $\lambda=\aleph_0 < \ …

Can GCH fail everywhere every way?
When working in ZF, one can have more freedom. See

Properness for uncountable models
The concept first appeared in Shelah's paper Independence results
The theorem you have stated should be folklore, but you may see Tapani Hyttinen and Mika Rautila, The canary tree revisited

Adding a closed unbounded set containing of only limit ordinals with a special property
Maybe the following idea works: Given a condition as above, also require the following:
(1) for each $\alpha, f(\alpha)$ is indecomposable,
(2) suppose $dom(p)=\{\beta_0 < \beta_1 < \cdots < \beta_n\} …

Coding the universe into a real over better core models
For measurable cardinals, the answer is yes and is due to Sy Friedman. See Coding Over a Measurable Cardinal.
There is some difficulty to extend the result to the context of Woodin cardinals, see Gen …

Properness for small forcings
The answer is no, as the following upcoming work of Shelah and Usuba shows:
Theorem (Shelah-Usuba):
The following theories are equiconsistent with ZFC:
