Raspberry SMS Agent

Raspberry SMS Agent is a Node.js application running on a Raspberry Pi. It uses the SIM800L module to periodically poll an external server for commands and sends SMS responses based on the commands received. This setup ensures secure and automated SMS command retrieval and dispatch for IoT applications, without requiring a static IP.
