I've never invoked an AGI from 'features,' but I'll assume it's 'the same' 
as executing an AGI from the dialplan.

Usual 'fails' in AGIs are:

1) Not using an established AGI library. While the AGI protocol is simple, 
nobody gets it right the first time.

2) Forgetting that your AGI's STDIN and STDOUT 'belong' to Asterisk and 
printing a debugging message or something similar.

3) Not reading the AGI environment from STDIN before requesting an AGI 
command.
