Being able to power surge at the proper time along with the some of the special racial abilities can make a heavy hitter. I suggest utilizing the powers that change your body. Might take a look at natural weapons as some of your powers known. Getting a psionic crystal will also help, its a scout and it can store more power points.
Also, there is a feat (at least in 3.5...haven't read the newest one fully) That gives you life for every psionic feat that you take, including that one.
Being able to choose what element the power might take is also very helpful for all occasions.
The Psychic Warrior (Meditant archetype, I think it's called) makes a good Monk.
Deadly fists, Flurry of Blows, a good amount of Power Points, and some neat powers (including one that gives you Pounce, basically, as a 3rd level power).
So if you ever wanted to play a Monk that's effectively a 6th level caster, here's your chance.
I suppose that by APG Psionics you mean Expanded Psionics. What level will you guys start?
Meditant doesn't look like it meshes too well with Feral Warrior; you have powers to give you natural attacks and then you can't use them in Flurry of Blows. I'd just go Feral Warrior. 2 claws and a bite would all be all Full Base Attack bonus and full strength damage.
For feats Psionic Meditation lets you get back Psionic Focus as a move instead of a full round, so you could get it back as a swift action by casting Hustle. That could go well with Psionic Fist and Greater Psionic fist, which gives you extra damage and the ability to expend your focus to do an extra 2d6 or 4d6 respectively. At level 10 minimum there is Advanced Feral Path which lets you add your path's extra to hit to damage as well; it also gives you a rend attack on a charge.
Psionic Fist says unarmed strike or natural attack so there is no issue.
Also Psionic Meditation needs 4 ranks in Auto Hypnosis so it can't come in at level 1. Also Multiattack does nothing if you are only using primary natural attacks (which claws and bites are). All of your primaries are at full BAB and full strength. It could come in handy if you ever get secondary natural attacks. Power Attack is also good.
If it says ranks it means skill ranks invested, not your total with modifiers. Because of that a lot of things have a hard level minimum.
Here is a detailed explanation of natural attacks as well as a chart showing which is which type.
I don't know about you but I look at this view for these boards so it's not as dead as you think. No idea what percentage of the people here do that though.
Psionic Body is nice if you are planning on taking mostly Psionic feats (which it seems you are). I would drop Rapid Metabolism as it's not terribly useful. As you have a low selection of powers you could also take a feat to get another known if something else tickled your fancy. I personally like Vigor but I don't know if I'd feat for it.
FIFY
I didn't really read the power all the way through before. Normally a primary only counts as a secondary if used with manufactured weapons in the same round, but yeah it looks like the power overrides that.

Bite of the Wolf is under a slight revision for Ultimate Psionics - it is (as far as we have determined so far) meant to work as a Natural Bite Attack.
