  "how": {
    "incantation": "When a Postgres branch’s extension catalog marks an extension `can_enable: true`, use `pscale branch extensions enable|disable` to toggle it; the command queues a branch change that may restart the database. Warn the user first, then track it with `resize status` or use `--wait`.",
    "examples": [
      "pscale branch extensions enable <database> <branch> <extension> --org <org> --format json",
      "pscale branch extensions disable <database> <branch> <extension> --org <org> --format json",
      "pscale branch extensions enable <database> <branch> <extension> --org <org> --format json --wait --wait-timeout <duration>"
    ],
    "gotchas": [
      "Version: v0.344.0",
      "<database> (required): Database name.",
      "<branch> (required): Branch name.",
      "<extension> (required): Extension name; it must be listed for the branch and marked `can_enable: true`.",
      "--org <org> (required): Selects the organization for the resource command.",
      "--format json: Selects JSON output; the documented examples use it.",
      "--wait: Waits for the change request to complete before returning.",
      "--wait-timeout <duration>: Maximum time to wait when `--wait` is used; defaults to 10m.",
      "Prerequisite: The database must be PostgreSQL. Neki extensions are managed per configuration profile; Vitess databases are unsupported by this command.",
      "Prerequisite: The extension must appear in `pscale branch extensions list` and be marked `can_enable: true`.",
      "Prerequisite: Authenticate with `pscale auth login`; for headless/CI use `--service-token-id` and `--service-token` on the command.",
      "Postgres only; Neki uses `branch config-profile extensions enable|disable`.",
      "The extension must have `can_enable: true`.",
      "The change queues a branch change and may restart the database.",
      "Extensions loaded with `CREATE EXTENSION` are outside this flow."
    ]
  },
  "why_it_matters": "Enable or disable a preloadable extension on a Postgres branch while preserving the branch's other selected libraries.",
  "before": "The release note says users had to edit the preload parameter directly, which could drop other libraries from the list.",
