+-->
+
+[pg_search](https://github.com/paradedb/paradedb) adds full-text search,
+vector retrieval, filtering, and aggregations to PostgreSQL.
+
+## Usage
+
+### 1. Add the extension images to your Cluster
+
+`pg_search` requires `pgvector`, so mount both extension images. It also links
+system libraries supplied in the image's `system` directory.
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: postgresql.cnpg.io/v1
+kind: Cluster
+metadata:
+  name: cluster-pg-search
+spec:
+  imageName: ghcr.io/cloudnative-pg/postgresql:18-minimal-trixie
+  instances: 1
+  storage:
+    size: 1Gi
+  postgresql:
+    shared_preload_libraries:
+    - "pg_search"
+    extensions:
+    - name: pg_search
+      image:
+        reference: ghcr.io/not-cloudnative-pg/pg-search:0.25.6-18-trixie
+      ld_library_path:
+      - system
+    - name: pgvector
+      image:
+        reference: ghcr.io/cloudnative-pg/pgvector:0.8.6-18-trixie
+```
+
+### 2. Enable the extension in a database
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: postgresql.cnpg.io/v1
+kind: Database
+metadata:
+  name: cluster-pg-search-app
+spec:
+  name: app
+  owner: app
+  cluster:
+    name: cluster-pg-search
+  extensions:
+  - name: vector
+    version: '0.8.6'
+  - name: pg_search
+    version: '0.25.6'
+```
+
+Alternatively, enable both extensions directly with SQL:
+
+```sql
+CREATE EXTENSION vector;
+CREATE EXTENSION pg_search;
+```
+
+### 3. Verify installation
+
+Connect with `psql` and run `\dx`. Both `vector` and `pg_search` should be
+listed among the installed extensions.
