This is not an AGI, this is an AMI :)
AGI is a protocol where Asterisk creates a process and sends it the "AGI
environment" (all the "AGI Tx >> agi_xxx" cruft above") and then waits for your
process to issue requests and read responses. This "request, response" is
repeated as your process completes it's tasks and exits.
Are you expecting your script to execute within the "context" of a channel
within Asterisk or as a process external to Asterisk?
I read your original request:

> How would I go about this?
as "I call in, I execute an AGI that looks up an extension based on some
criteria, I want to dial that extension."
If this is close, the AGI should set a channel variable with the value of the
extension and exit. Your dialplan would look something like:
exten = my-did,1, verbose(${ext...@${context})
exten = my-did,n, agi(lookup-extension)
exten = my-did,n, dial{${LOOKED-UP-EXTENSION})
exten = my-did,n, hangup()
If you are doing what Steve has described, and you require php, you should
really check out PHPAGI (http://phpagi.sourceforge.net/). It's a great
framework for using both AGI and the AMI in PHP. If you need just the AGI
component and are going to be doing this on a large scale, google cagi
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/cagi/). It is structured similarly to PHPAGI.

Wow, that was fast. Thanks for your reply!!! So if I were to do: Action: login Username: Secret: Events: off Action: Originate Channel: SIP/trunk Context: context-for-second-call Exten: secondCall Priority: 1 Callerid: CallerID Timeout: 30 I could connect the 2 calls?
