No, they aren't a summary. They are the actual decoding of the sequence of tokens emitted during the the “thinking” stage of response generation.

Just as with, say, a human onner monolog in words vs actual speech, they are a product of the same output process as the non-thinking tokens. They aren’t a translation of the internal process that precedes the output mapped into language, either as a full result or a summary.
