Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, Steam-Powered
For starters, you will need to make sure your playgroup allows silver-bordered cards in Commander, as Augment is only found on silver-bordered cards at this time.
Yes, Augment cards are creature cards, and thus interact with abilities that care about creature cards. This means that you could indeed return Steam-Powered to the battlefield using Alesha's ability (assuming your group agrees that the +0/+4 in its P/T box actually qualifies as Power and Toughness; the rules are a bit fuzzy on this because it's Unstable).
However, from what rules for Unstable that do exist, your Augment card would go to your graveyard again right away for not having a proper host.
- If an augment card finds itself on the battlefield not combined with a host, it heads to the graveyard. See the Unstable Mechanics article on Wizards' website
Like with a lot of Un-set cards, much of the interactions will require you to discuss it with your playgroup and see what they think. The above is the only official stance I can find on it.
