I'm writing a customized activity for TFS build process workflow, e.g. guideline here.

You should to use the CustomSummaryInformation object to display the summary message. Here is the code. Hope it helps.

 protected override void Execute(CodeActivityContext context)
 {
    var summaryReport = new CustomSummaryInformation()
    {
    Message = "Your message",
    SectionPriority = 0,
    SectionHeader = "Header Name",
    SectionName = "Section Name",
    };
    context.Track(summaryReport);
}
