# Synthetic sample input

> **SYNTHETIC FIXTURE — not real data.** The person, job, and circumstances below are invented for offline workflow testing. They are not real.

**Situation (fixture):** Alex works full time as a warehouse shift lead, three evenings a week free, a small savings buffer, and a two-year-old at home. Alex has been doing weekend photography for friends and enjoys it.

**Pasted message (fixture):** "I keep thinking about going freelance as a photographer but I also got offered a supervisor course at work that starts next month. I don't want to waste the course if I'm leaving, but I don't want to stay forever either. I can't take a pay cut this year."

**Expected task:** Build a decision frame: state the situation and direction, write the decision as one question with a horizon, separate ideas from commitments, compare the realistic options against the stated constraints, and propose one small reversible test. Do not decide for Alex. Label the result as a synthetic demonstration.
