is there a DNS lookup command that is installed by default on any
Debian Bullseye or Bookworm install?


nslookup is in busybox.

busybox is an optional package, so it may be absent. "getent hosts" fromGreg's message is better in this sense. If systemd-resolved isconfigured on a particular instance then


    resolvectl query debian.org

may be an option.
