How do I quickly write a handover plan when I'm out sick?

Build a Gemini skill once that turns your spoken brain dump into a plan with fixed sections, then use it each time you're away. As of October 2026, you create skills by asking Gemini in chat and call them by typing a slash. If you rarely hand off work, a one-time prompt in any chat app is enough. If you're out often or have regular helpers, the skill saves you rewriting the same structure.

Your prompt

Fill in your details. Skip any you like.

This AI can't be filled in from a link, so the button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.

The prompt that gets copied

Help me build a skill called Cover plan. When I paste a messy brain dump about a day I'll be away, it should turn it into a clear plan for [WHO COVERS, e.g. my assistant] at [YOUR BUSINESS, e.g. a dog grooming shop]. Use these sections every time: Today at a glance, Schedule hour by hour, Who to call and when, What can wait until I'm back, and If something goes wrong. Keep sentences short, put names and times in bold, and flag anything in my notes that's missing or unclear instead of guessing. Here's an example of a plan I liked: [PAST PLAN EXAMPLE, e.g. paste an old handoff note]. Ask me up to three questions before you build the skill, only if something is unclear.

Ask Gemini to build a skill that turns your rambling notes into a tidy plan for a stand-in. Next time you're out, you talk for two minutes and get a ready plan.
