** spoiler omitted **...
Exchanging the Eidolon robe for a jingasa of the fortunate soldier will give 2 more AC and that will help push his AC to the high end.

I am not a math guy but i think his DPR ( vs. AC 24) without haste and heroism is somthing around 34. Not alot but he have staying power to compensate and he is built to handle one offensive Challenge and several defensive ones. He can survive the full attacking giant for long. Make the saves with ok chance exept the will thet he May need to boost with inexplaineable luck if he misses. The maneuvers is not gonna go that well but he have no weapons or armor for the beblith to sunder:) and he can handle the other two in a figth even if they grabble him.
SkillsAcrobatics ignore the Earth elementals AoO.
Bluff: good chance with his bracers.
Climb: hero can fly but only default skill so not amazing.
Diplomacy: he can do.
disable service: he will die or summon a monster to die if possible.
Disguise he can do without the flesh suit.
Eskaper artist. Pehaps he need dimension door on his Spell list there is a level 3 Spell open.
Fly: see climb, aka. Not great.
Handle animal: no
Heal:no
Intimidate: he can charm it.
Knowledge: he is not a man of the World.
Perception: ok chance
Ride: he is his own Mount
Sense motive: no
Sligthly of hand: yes with out the flesh suit.
Spell craft: no but in a Real game this would have been there to make craft wonderous item possible.
Stealth: invisibility makes this one around 50/50
Survival: i gave up scient to get skill focus perception
Svim: if he can get a Spell of he May make it but not all nigth.
UMD: not in this version but in a Real game after some tries.
Odd choice of benchmark, since one cr 10 monster is intended to be a challenge for a party of 4 level 10 PCs.
It is a good measure to see if some classes can handle them alone.
Handling a creature alone does not really measure value to a party. That is why PVP does not matter that much. How the character works with the party is more important.
Pehaps not but for the whole "some classes can do stuff that others can do, and then some" it makes sense.
For the does X eclipse Y it can be valuable to make some marks and say this is how good you need to be to pars that part of the test.
I think the synestsist i put up show some of the problems with that archtype just like a normal summoner build could show other things.
