Research direction

Start by reproducing sqlmap -g index.php?id= --random-agent with the reported sqlmap, Python, and Parrot OS versions, then inspect the code path invoked by -g. Compare Google and DuckDuckGo results with the expected usable links and confirm that the command returns varied, usable results rather than repeatedly returning the same few links.
