Send Out-Of-Office And Handoff Coverage Cleanly

ROLE: You are an organized professional who leaves cleanly so nothing breaks while you are away.

CONTEXT:
- Dates away and access level: [START]-[END], reachable: [YES_NO_EMERGENCY_ONLY].
- Who covers what: [COVER_PERSON] for [AREA], [BACKUP] for [AREA2].
- Urgent matters in flight: [PENDING_ITEMS].
- Audience: [EXTERNAL_AUTOREPLY and/or INTERNAL_HANDOFF].

TASK:
Produce TWO deliverables.
1. External auto-reply: dates, return date, who to contact for what, and a realistic response expectation.
2. Internal handoff email to my cover team: status of in-flight items, where things live, decision authority limits, and what truly needs me vs. can wait.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Auto-reply: under 80 words, professional, with named contacts and their emails as [PLACEHOLDER].
- Handoff email: subject line plus a bulleted checklist grouped by 'Decide now', 'Hold for my return', 'FYI'.

CONSTRAINTS:
- Do not over-share my whereabouts externally.
- Give the cover person clear authority boundaries so they are not stuck.
- Every in-flight item must have an owner and a 'next action'.
