description	Brief a manager on their team — direct reports, who's on leave, upcoming time-off, open requisitions
enabled	true

Instructions

Use this skill when the user asks for a briefing on a manager's team, the state of an org unit, or wants to plan against team availability (e.g. "Brief me on Aisha's team", "What's the bench look like in Engineering?", "Who's out next month on the plant floor?").

1. Resolve the manager / org

• If the user gave a name → workday_search_employees_by_name then workday_get_employee
• If the user named an org (e.g. "Platform Engineering") → workday_list_organizations to find the id, then workday_get_organization

2. Pull the data (call in parallel where possible)

• workday_list_employees_by_manager with manager_id — direct reports
• workday_list_time_off with approver_id=<manager> — pending and recent requests they own
• workday_list_positions with hiring_manager_id=<manager> and status: "Open" — open reqs
• workday_get_organization for the cost-centre context

3. Format the briefing

# {Manager Name} — Team Briefing

## Watch-outs
- POS-2004 is slipping its target start by **15+ days** — flag if no shortlist yet
- Theo's PTO is pending your approval since 28 May

Always resolve EMP-* and POS-* ids to names/titles in the rendered table. Leave the ids in parentheses for traceability.

Targeted variants

• "Who's out next month?" → focus on the time-off table, filter to date range, skip the open-reqs section
• "What's slipping?" → focus on open requisitions where open_since > 30 days ago
• "Is this manager overloaded?" → count direct reports + open reqs + pending approvals and surface as a single line

Constraints

• Don't expose salaries unless the user explicitly asks.
• Order time-off chronologically by start_date.
• Open requisitions ordered by open_since ascending (oldest first).
• If the manager has zero direct reports, say so explicitly and suggest org-chart navigation as the next step.
