  • Added new live_debugger.md subsection covering the Live Debugger feature: overview, activity views, source editor integration, creating/editing/disabling/deleting logpoints, gutter icon status table, and generate-unit-test workflow
  • Added three Live Debugger demo videos and four logpoint status icon PNGs to static/images/ide_plugins/vscode/
  • Updated _index.md to include Live Debugger in the feature list and core features section, with a link to the new subsection
  • Removed the "Static Code Analysis does not require a Datadog account" alert from code_security.md
  • Replaced the Secret Scanning "no config file required" sentence with clearer wording sourced from the extension README PR
  • Added the Datadog Code Security > Open in DDSA Rule Editor context-menu instruction to the Rule editor section
