Using any JS dev tools is there a way to programmatically create a debugger break point? I'm using chrome, but don't mind to switch to a different environment supporting the feature.

It never was so simple. Anywhere you want in JS place the statement:

debugger;

If the Chrome debugger is open, it will break there.

Use alert() , that should do the trick.

What part of "programmatically" did you misunderstand?
can I get access to the context vars, which is the most interesting part, I know that the line I'm trying to debug gets hit.
