Get conversation summary

Get a lightweight summary of a conversation: its title, the generated transcript summary, whether the call was successful, and — only when the conversation is short — the plain chat messages. Tool calls, tool results, and contextual updates are omitted so the response stays small. Use this instead of the full conversation endpoint when you only need the gist (e.g. an agent reading many conversations); use GET /v1/convai/conversations/{conversation_id} when you need the full transcript with tool calls and contextual updates.
