If a Magus uses Spell Strike to embue a melee attack with Magic Missile do all of the missiles have to hit the target of the melee strike or is the Magus still able to choose who each missile hits?

I want to play a catfolk character that focuses on claw attacks and thought the monk class would be a good fit, but I'm not sure how or if the monk stances would interact with the claws. Since the stances damage is based on normal unarmed strikes that do 1d4 damage what would happen if I used a stance with the catfolk's claws which do 1d6 damage? Would that mean because the claws are one damage increment higher than fists that the stances damage would be one increment higher as well, or would the stances damage be unaffected. If it is unaffected would playing a clawed catfolk monk be any different than playing any other ancestry, or would the claws just be relegated to flavor rather than being an actual benefit?
I am working on creating a custom race that would be a more feral less evolved version of catfolk that leans more towards it's origins as a big cat and focuses on natural attacks like claws and bite. I picture them being more solitary or living in small nomadic tribes that survive primarily by hunting and rarely if ever trade or interact with other races. As a result, they would lean more toward physical power and speed and be less sociable. I have been using the custom race builder with the idea that they would be an advanced race with an RP of 15, but that it would be at least partially offset by them only being proficient with their natural attacks (claws and bite), claw blades, and possibly light armor. This is what I have so far, but if anyone has any ideas or advice on how I could improve this that would be awesome.
Only proficient in claw blades and light armor. Racial Traits:
