For P287A and the clutch actuator, the car won’t be drivable until you program the new parts. You’ll need a scanner that supports Ford programming, like the Ford IDS system or a high-end tool like Autel MaxiSys.
For P2862 (Shift Fork ‘B’), this could be the gear actuator motor or possibly an internal transmission issue. If you have a scan tool capable of recalibration, you might be able to resolve it that way.
The P052B camshaft code is likely related to oil pressure or the timing solenoid. Check your oil level and condition first. If it’s good, replacing the solenoid is probably your next step.

Good call on checking the oil first. Low oil pressure can throw that code and cause more problems if left unchecked.
If you’re not confident with the programming or dealing with multiple codes, taking it to a Ford dealership might be the best option. They’ll have the tools and experience to handle it all at once.

True, but dealerships can be pricey. If you have access to a good scan tool, you can save some money by doing the programming and recalibration yourself.
