+## Debugging
+
+The Ruby extension provides a debug adapter for debugging Ruby code. Zed's name for the adapter (in the UI and `debug.json`) is `rdbg`, and under the hood, it uses the [`debug`](https://github.com/ruby/debug) gem. The extension uses the [same activation logic](#language-server-activation) as the language servers.
+
+### Examples
+
+#### Debug a Ruby script
+
+```jsonc
+[
+ {
+ "label": "Debug current file",
+ "adapter": "rdbg",
+ "request": "launch",
+ "script": "$ZED_FILE",
+ "cwd": "$ZED_WORKTREE_ROOT",
+ },
+]
+```
+
+#### Debug Rails server
+
+```jsonc
+[
+ {
+ "label": "Debug Rails server",
+ "adapter": "rdbg",
+ "request": "launch",
+ "command": "$ZED_WORKTREE_ROOT/bin/rails",
+ "args": ["server"],
+ "cwd": "$ZED_WORKTREE_ROOT",
