Get aggregated summary statistics for logs in a dataset. Pass filters to scope the summary; omit filters to summarize all logs.
AI agents call summarize_dataset_logs to retrieve information from Respan MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and aggregates existing log data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a passive read operation that queries a dataset and returns computed statistics. No side effects or state changes occur.
