AI agent for volunteer coordinators
Event Volunteer Role Assignment Agent
A full event roster with every station covered by qualified people
What it does
Events like fun runs and fairs need many volunteers in specific roles and time slots, and rosters are often built the night before. This agent takes the event plan with stations, slots and skills needed, plus sign-ups with each person's preferences. It assigns certified roles first, since first aid needs certified people in every slot, then fills the rest by preference, time limits and requests to work with friends. It checks that every station meets its minimum in every slot and that nobody is double booked. If a gap remains, it moves flexible people or lists slots that need recruiting. It drafts role sheets and briefings. The coordinator approves before messages go out, and the agent checks confirmations afterward.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
