### Writing a script

CatBypasser offers quick functions which will help you with your script.

### Bypassing

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Bypass Function

```lua
local Bypassed_Phrase = CatBypasser:Bypass("Fuck you") 
print(Bypassed_Phrase)
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Filter Function

CatBypasser has it's own filter function, because Roblox deprecated it's own filter check function.

```lua
local filtered, status = pcall(function()
return CatBypasser:FilterCheck(Bypassed_Phrase)
end)

if filtered then 
   print("Message filtered.") 
 else
   -- Anything here... 
end
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Check Status Function

If CatBypasser's API is down it will return true.

```lua
if CatBypasser:Status() == "Down" then print("API is down") end
```

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
