PTO Coverage Auto-Staffing Agent
An agent that detects upcoming on-call gaps from Outlook PTO, picks the best-fit available backup by skills and recent load in Postgres.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

- OutputPost proposal with confirm options to SlackSlack
What it does
When a coverage gap appears, this agent doesn't just alert — it reasons about who should fill it. It weighs each candidate's skills, current shift load, and their own Outlook availability, then drafts a concrete staffing proposal naming the recommended backup and the reasoning.
When to use it
Use it when gap alerts alone create busywork and you want a defensible first-draft fix. It's built for managers who want the system to do the matching and leave them a yes/no decision rather than a research task.
How it works
- 1A daily schedule triggers the agent.
- 2It reads upcoming shifts, candidate skills, and recent on-call load from Postgres.
- 3It checks each candidate's Outlook calendar to confirm real availability for the gap window.
- 4The agent ranks candidates and writes a proposal with the recommended backup and rationale.
- 5It posts the proposal to Slack with confirm and reassign options for the manager.
