Abstract:As IT systems grow in complexity, automated agent-driven incident response becomes increasingly critical. A key capability for these agents is summarizing large log streams into human-readable reports. Further progress requires meaningfully evaluating this function, yet existing benchmarks leave end-to-end summarization from large log streams underexplored due to the prohibitive cost and complexity of collecting real-world data. We introduce SLS-Bench, a benchmark for incident log summarization featuring 90 tasks grounded in real-world incident reports, each with a synthetic log stream and a reference summary. To construct SLS-Bench, we developed a data generation pipeline that converts incident reports into structured incident models, which guide the generation of synthetic logs and reference summaries. This pipeline combines narrative grounding, explicit incident modeling, generator-verifier loops, and statistical comparisons with real-world log streams to produce realistic and controllable observability data. Our evaluation of 14 LLMs on SLS-Bench shows that while frontier models can produce useful summaries, they do so at substantial cost and latency, and open-weight models lag significantly. SLS-Bench provides a framework for systematic evaluation of log analysis agents and a scalable blueprint for future synthetic observability benchmarks.
