## Prompt

```text
Generate realistic sample content for my design mockups.

**Screen or component:** [e.g. order history list, team member table, product card grid, chat thread]
**Fields needed:** [LIST EACH FIELD AND ITS TYPE - e.g. name, avatar initials, status, amount in USD, date, short description]
**Domain and users:** [e.g. a vet clinic booking app for pet owners]
**How many records:** [e.g. 12]
**Locales to reflect:** [e.g. US only, or mixed international names and currencies]

Rules:
- Make it believable for this domain: realistic values, plausible distributions (not every status "Active"), and consistent relationships (dates in order, totals that add up).
- Include deliberate stress cases, labeled: a very long name, a one-character value, a missing optional field, a large number, an accented or non-Latin name, and a long word that cannot wrap.
- Use clearly fictional people and companies. Do not use real people's names, real email domains, or real-looking personal data such as phone numbers or IDs; use reserved examples (e.g. example.com, 555 numbers).
- Keep tone neutral; no jokes in data that stakeholders might read as real.

Return the data as a table, plus the same data as JSON for design plugins or prototypes, and a short list of what each stress case will test in my layout.
```
