On October 16th, 2016, nullifiedcat began development on Cathook, paving the way for the largest conflict TF2 has ever seen: the bot crisis.

This is the history of Cathook (TF2's worst enemy) in 3 minutes.

⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤

Update: as of April 2024, TF2's transition to 64-bit resulted in Cathook's 32-bit code becoming obsolete. Developer BenCat07 released a statement saying, "time would be better spent just writing a Cathook 2," signaling no intentions to revive the project. Cathook was pronounced dead on Thursday, April 18, 2024, after 7 years and 6 months. While Cathook may have ceased to function, the bot crisis rages on, as forks and projects inspired by Cathook continue to carry on its legacy, fueling the crisis and intensifying it like never before.
