What It Does

1. Polls for SMS every 30 seconds using a time pattern trigger.
2. Calls glinet_router.get_sms to fetch all messages from the router.
3. Filters to incoming messages only.
4. For each message, creates a persistent notification showing the sender's phone number and message text.
5. Removes the processed message from the router via glinet_router.remove_sms.
