The answer to my own question is

Hire a consultant (which I did) to create a queue with dynamic agents,
allow the agents to AgentCallbackLogin in with internal or external
extensions, and set the ackcall=yes in the agent.conf to allow the agent
to accept (#) the call or refuse it by doing nothing. This type of setup
will take a qualified consultant 1 to 2 hours to set up and a beginner 8
to 10 hours to learn :) Look up agents.conf, queues.conf, and
AgentCallbackLogin on the wiki.
