Watch out for

SMS character limits can truncate long AI responses so you must implement logic to split messages or summarize key points before sending.
Twilio API rate limits may block rapid-fire requests during high traffic periods so add exponential backoff retry logic to your client calls.
Chat memory can grow indefinitely and increase token costs so implement a sliding window strategy that only keeps the last N exchanges in context.
Phone number formatting inconsistencies can cause duplicate entries in Postgres so normalize all incoming numbers using E.164 standard before storage.
