Workload Handoff Preparation Agent
A clean handoff for every absence.
What it does
When someone goes on leave, the status of their work and its context are often unclear to the backup. When an absence is approved, this agent identifies unfinished work and deadlines in scope, from task boards, calendars and shared folders. It assembles a handoff pack that links each item to its source and proposes backup tasks. It checks that the backup can access everything in the pack. Material the backup cannot access is removed, and the owner decides whether to grant access or handle it differently. The manager approves reassignment. Absence details are not shared. Edge case: a contract file sits in a restricted folder, so it is removed from the pack and the owner is asked.
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.
