I would suggest putting the Dial commands in the dialplan itself.

Have the AGI do all the call routing decision making based upon its
database lookups, but then instead of calling Dial with EXEC, just do
SET PRIORITY, SET EXTENSION and even SET CONTEXT to choose the required
part of the dialplan, then exit the AGI. Have the sequence of extensions
in the dialplan, which allows a successful Dial to terminate the
sequence.

Hope this helps

Cheers
Tony
