No, `node inspect` is the new command line debugger for `node --inspect` which replaces `node debug` for `node --debug`. The name is derived from `node --inspect` and has no relation to `node-inspector`.

Thanks for your work! CLI has always been my primary method of debugging node, and I'd hate to see it go away.

Is this pretty much identical to the old debugger?

Yep, the same commands should still work. There's some additional commands now for CPU/memory profiles. But that's the biggest difference - hopefully.
