Yeah looks cool Your Scarecrow detachment needs another Core choice though.
For the shock mauls end cybel mines you'll need 2 expansion sprues besides the starter boxes.

The Scarecrow card has an additional units box on it, where you can see he's only allowed additional (Robot-only) units when equipped with a Command Array. Two Core units are mandatory.

Okay, wait-I have to obey both the STANDARD and the UNIT-SPECIFIC restrictions, not just one or the other?

There's no 'standard' restrictions as such (except max 8 units per detachment). Each Command model has its own detachment rules. The Journeyman and Kaddar Nova happen to have the same options, but the Command Scarecrow has different rules for composing its detachment. Future command models will have different rules still, probably.

The standard detachment restrictions are as follows:
● the maximum number of units a detachment may ever include is eight.
● no single type of selection: command, hammer, vanguard or anvil, may exceed the total number of core units in the
detachment.
● The first unit selected for each detachment must be a command unit.
Those are the standard restrictions.

Oh yeah, sorry, that was my "except" in shortened form :p. But I see what you mean now. So yes, we have to follow both those standard detachment restrictions and the 'additional unit' restrictions for the chosen command model

Hrm... Any advice on how to move stuff around to be more legitimate, within the starter kit restrictions?

I would go with the 120pt sample lists here, maybe move some options around from there to suit your taste.

That could work, or something like it.
Question, though-is the Chemtek Sprayer worth it when you have a largely humanoid force?

Eh. In the game I played, they didn't do much. Just kinda died. (Admittedly, one game, so not much to go on.)
Chemtek sprayers make lethal terrain within 6" for organic units, right? Isn't that, you know, BAD FOR YOU, when you're fielding organic units?

The Epirian reference sheet does say enemy units, don't have the rulebook handy right now.
