As soon as you devote that natural weapon to the attack sequence, it's no longer carrying nothing. It's wielding a natural weapon. So the bonuses of the Archetype would be suspended during the full-attack action (but gained back as soon as the attack with that limb is over).
Now, if you had extra arms from the Alchemist discovery, this would be a perfect use for them. Attack with sword, claw, and use that third arm to do your balancing, distracting, and other actions required of the Archetype.
