1. Active items: status, what's next, and who to contact, in a table.
2. Recurring tasks and when they're due during my absence.
3. The "only I know this" knowledge, written so someone else can act on it.
4. A decision guide: what the cover person can decide alone, and the rare things worth interrupting me for.
5. Key contacts and access notes (placeholders for anything sensitive).
Keep it scannable so my cover can find answers fast.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
