Thanks, I will have to create a shortcut for it.

This should work

chrome.exe --silent-debugger-extension-api

Is it safe to do? I mean I want to stop this message for Vytal only, because I know that it uses debugger API. But I would want to know if tomorrow my adblocker starts to use debugger API.

Any existing extension would have to explicitly declare the appropriate permission for using the debugger API. Chrome automatically disables extensions that add new permissions until you review them.
