I do most of my development in IntelliJ. It allows you to run python code in it’s debugger which is very useful because you can insert breakpoints and look at variables at that point in the code. Since I have to use Rasa’s entry point from the command line: ($rasa shell) and run custom actions as a server ($rasa run actions). I do not see any obvious way in which I can make use of my debugger, either to debug the actions.py file or to observe the inner workings of Rasa itself. Is there a way to do this? Thank you.

This is how I run server via pycharm. This also will work for debug mode.
