Are travel agents required to pass on any phone calls they receive from the airline?

Travel agents are normally required to inform you of changes to material circumstances. Those would be things like: change of flight time, change of seats, change of airports, change of layovers, change of booking class, etc. Reminding you to check in would be merely a courtesy, as they’ve already warned you about it at the time of booking.

Therefore the answer is no, the agent is not at fault here.

As a side note I would add that its extremely unlikely that Ryanair actually called your travel agent. I’ve been flying with them for many years and I’ve never received such a phone call, even if I was about to miss the flight altogether. Its much more likely that your travel agent merely received an automated email from Ryanair reminding them that check-in is open. For this reason its always useful to make sure that the airline has your contact details stored, rather than just the contact details of your travel agent.
