The tools before analysis is a section of the analysis process that will run optional configured tools before any analysis takes place.

There are no specific logs for this process by itself, though the optional configured tools will have logs that can be reviewed.

This is all configured in CAST-MS in the 'Content Enrichment' tab.  More information on this can be seen in the documentation here:  CMS - Content Enrichment tab
