Since you found the JSD API, you've probably figured that Venkman is 
merely a GUI sitting atop that very API. To use it, you'd need to have 
embedding support for XPCOM, XUL, etc., as well as SpiderMonkey, and 
even then I don't know exactly how you'd do it.

Unfortunately, that basically means you have to do your own debugger 
atop JSD. There was talk of remote debugging at one point - where you 
could connect one JSD to another running application's JSD - but I don't 
think any code for that exists, never mind working examples. :-(
