Haven’t tested this, but you should be able to leverage osascript from within your AppleScript.

E.g.

set debugMsg to "osascript -e \"display dialog \\\"the debugging message I want to send\\\"\""
do shell script debugMsg
Best

Well, that's curious.  When I run this:

set debugMsg to "osascript -e \"display dialog \\\"the debugging message I want to send\\\"\""
do shell script debugMsg

I get this:

AppleScript Runtime Error:
0:53: execution error: No user interaction allowed. (-1713)

... which is the same error launchd throws.
