Maybe I'm having a brainfart but what does the Efficient Creator boon from the Last Azlanti's Analects actually do?
It lets you make mundane items by using the magic item creation rules. Instead of making a Craft check for each week of progress, you simply make 1000gp of progress per day on the item. So instead of a couple of years spent to make adamantine full plate with the normal Craft rules, you can get it done in just a couple of weeks.
It is a magical ritual to speed up mundane crafting, but with an increased cost (1/2 the item cost in raw materials instead of the normal 1/3).
It seems like it lets you craft without the feat similar to Master Craftsman
Master Craftsman does not let you craft items without the relevant feat (Craft Magic arms & Armor or Craft Wondrous Item). You must still take those feats. Master Craftsmans just lets you use ranks in a relevant Craft skill to meet the prerequisites of those two feats instead of requiring a caster level.

Hmm, this is in the same book as the Create Armaments spell. So if you want to make an adamantine full plate, your options are
1) spend 1 minute casting a spell and an equal value in diamonds with a representative bit of adamant
2) spend 9? days preparing 3 spells with this boon in your spellbook
3) spend a few years making weekly craft checks
Not being a spellcaster really blows in this game.
