I have done a task to run my app and launch node-inspector. It is far better than current proposition, you just have to add this task in gruntfile:

  grunt.registerTask('debug', 'My debug task.', function() {
        var done = this.async();
        grunt.util.spawn({
            cmd: 'node',
            args: ['--debug', 'app.js'],
            opts: {
                //cwd: current workin directory
            }
        },
        function (error, result, code) {
            if (error) {
                grunt.log.write (result);
                grunt.fail.fatal(error);
            }
            done();
        });
        grunt.log.writeln ('node started');
        grunt.util.spawn({
            cmd: 'node-inspector',
            args: ['&'],
            opts: {
                //cwd: current workin directory
            }
        },
        function (error, result, code) {
            if (error) {
                grunt.log.write (result);
                grunt.fail.fatal(error);
            }
            done();
        });
        grunt.log.writeln ('inspector started');
    });
