  Edmunds' own documentation names exactly two first-party client libraries — a JavaScript
  SDK and a Python SDK — and links both to https://github.com/EdmundsAPI/. Both of those
  linked repositories now return HTTP 404: the EdmundsAPI organisation still exists but its
  only surviving public repository is the API blog. The Python SDK survives on PyPI as a
  single 2014 release published from api@edmunds.com; nothing was ever published to npm
  under an Edmunds-owned name. This is the clearest decay signal in the record and it
  matches the retirement of the open API program on 2018-02-15 (see lifecycle/).

      First-party: PyPI metadata lists author_email api@edmunds.com and home_page
      github.com/EdmundsAPI/sdk-python, the repository Edmunds' own docs link to as
      "our Python SDK". One release ever, 2014-04-12, and its summary states it wraps
      the Python 2 era API. The linked repository is gone.

      "The Edmunds' API JavaScript SDK", still public in the company's main GitHub org,
      last pushed 2011-09-14. version is null because it was never published to npm under
      any Edmunds-owned name — checked, nothing to record. The SDK the documentation
      actually links to, github.com/EdmundsAPI/sdk-javascript, returns 404.

      No Edmunds-owned package. registry.npmjs.org/edmunds exists as a name but every one
      of its 13 versions (2017-2019) was unpublished on 2026-04-15 and it was an unrelated
      Node application framework, not an Edmunds.com client.
