Help
Bidding starts:
1♣-1♥
1♠-2♦
2♥
IS there any autosplinter available?, 2♠, 3♠ and 4♠ sound like too many natural spade bids.

I presume 2♦ is not GF, because if it's GF, you don't need all the jumps to show spades.
Do you have agreements what 1♣-1♥-1♠-3♦ and 1♣-1♥-1♠-2♦-2♥-3♦ mean ?
If the second of those agrees hearts, continuing 3♥-4♠ should be a splinter.

it seems to me 3s should be a spade splinter. If you had a 3s bid you would have bid that over 1s and while 2s (over 2h) might only be marking time surely your 4th suit is forcing to at least 2n:))

K. Martens books about bidding are recommended. After trump agreement all suit bids except trumps are cuebids!

Fine. But what constitutes suit agreement?? Surely not the 2♥ bid in the OP sequence?
For my money, it doesn't really make any difference whether or not 2♦ is GF. Even if you only play it as showing an invitation+ hand, then supporting partner via 4SF by bidding 2♠ now should be F.
