I don't have a launch activity in the Manifest (and won't add one, because it normally runs as a service). I use an Activity for debugging to launch the App and used to do it in Android Studio with specifying a launch configuration.
Reading the error output Launch failed: No valid launch activity found in AndroidManifest.xml or launch.json indicates I could do the same, but how to I set it? At least the auto-suggestions did not suggest a suitable attribute.
