  A recorded ZERO. Spruce Health publishes no first-party client library for the Spruce
  Public API in any package registry, and none in its GitHub organization. Every
  documented integration path is a raw HTTPS call - the docs and the Webhooks Overview
  show curl, and the only code Spruce ships is a Go webhook-signature verification
  snippet inside a documentation page, not a distributable package.

    Go modules resolve under github.com/sprucehealth/* because the org hosts Go
    libraries, but none of them is a Spruce Public API client. See below.

    The organization is real and active - repositories were pushed to as recently as
    2026-08-10 - but it contains no client library for the Spruce Public API. Its public
    repos are internal engineering tools (agentrules, link-shortener, twimulator, two
    GitHub Actions), a Go library for the Hint Health integration (go-hint), and a long
    tail of forks of third-party Go, Swift and Objective-C dependencies (convoy, pgx,
    mock, ReactiveCocoa, Masonry). Nothing here is distributed as, or documented as, a
    Spruce API SDK.

    language: Go
    pushed: '2026-08-10'
    note: >-
      A Go client for Hint Health's API - one of the EHR platforms Spruce integrates
      WITH. It calls someone else's API; it is not a client for Spruce's own.
  - repo: convoy-go
    url: https://github.com/sprucehealth/convoy-go
    language: Go
    pushed: '2024-10-28'
    note: >-
      A fork of the Convoy webhooks-gateway Go SDK. Adjacent to Spruce's webhook
      delivery but a third-party project, not a Spruce API client.

    verifySignature - constant-time HMAC-SHA256 verification of the X-Spruce-Signature
    header. The only hand-written Spruce code published anywhere, and it is a snippet in
    a page, not a package.

assessment: >-
  For an integrator this is the notable gap in an otherwise well-specified API. Spruce
  publishes a real 47-operation OpenAPI, so a generated client is one command away and
  the absence of a hand-maintained SDK costs less than it would elsewhere. But there is
  no versioned, dated, first-party artifact in any registry, which means there is also
  no package-release signal by which to judge whether the client surface is being
  maintained. The currency evidence for this provider has to come from the OpenAPI and
  the What's New feed instead - both of which are current, the feed as recently as
  2026-08-11.
