The variable org-agenda-files can also contain directories. Therefore
you should use the function call
(org-agenda-files t)
to get a list of the files. The t means, even if the agenda
is currently restricted, get all files.
Another improvement to this function would be to limit it
to files currently visited - but I guess this is a minor issue
as the next agenda command will visit all those files anyway.
