The GCP console doesn't automatically enable the Stackdriver Debugger API for new GCE instances with the default options, so I've made changes to the README describing how to do so.

For new Google Compute Engine instances, you need to explicitly enable the Debugger API access scope. From the web UI, you can do this in one of two ways under **Identity and API access**:
* Use the Compute Engine default service account and select "Allow full access to all Cloud APIs" under Access scopes.
* Select a service account with the **Cloud Debugger Agent** role (or any role with at least the same permissions). You may need to create one if you don't have one already.

Stackdriver debugger agent should work out of the box if your code is running on Google Cloud Platform, just make sure that the [Stackdriver Debugger API][debugger-api] is enabled on your project (this is the default).
The Stackdriver Debugger Agent should work without manually provided authentication credentials for instances running on Google Cloud Platform, as long as the [Stackdriver Debugger API][debugger-api] access scope is enabled on that instance. For Google App Engine instances, this is automatic if the Debugger API has been enabled for your project (which it is by default).
