How can I reattach a debugger after disconnecting?

I want to be able to start deno from a command line, but be able to attach to it from VSCode.

I actually have that much working, but there is one issue - if I disconnect the debugger, I cannot reattach it.

I am running like so: deno run --inspect-wait .\first_steps.ts

I am attaching with this configuration:
{
            "request": "attach",
            "name": "Attach To Running Program",
            "type": "node",
            "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}",
            "port": 9229,
        }


The source code is a couple of loops that each take a few seconds to execute.
After hitting a breakpoint in the first loop, I disconnect.
I then immediately try to reconnect, but it seems the program ignores the attempt until it finishes running.

Is there anything I can do differently to be able to reattach the debugger?
