Research direction

Start by tracing how sidecars are configured for the kind:Postgresql resource and how the operator generates their Kubernetes container specifications. Verify the supported configuration path for exporter and pgbouncer sidecars, then add coverage showing that customized command and args are preserved in the generated resources.
