Description
As the title suggests, when debugging a site, using this plugin, it would be great to have the script name show without having to expand the entire RUN AND DEBUG panel all the way to the right. I suggested the "session" popup on mouseover of the entry under "Call Stack", but if it could be inserted at the beginning of the line, that would work too.
I'd also suggest having the debug process automatically attached/switched to new pages when opened. Or to the focused tab, if possible.
I spend way too much time manually dragging that pane open, highlighting the correct line in the Call Stack, then clicking the "Open Browser Devtools" button again to attach the debug process to the correct window/tab, then dragging that pane back to a reasonable size.

Research direction
Start by locating the Call Stack pane and its session hover behavior in the extension, then inspect how the Open Browser Devtools action attaches to pages or tabs. Done should make the script URL or file name visible without widening the pane and clarify whether automatic attachment to new or focused pages is feasible.
