I would have taken 4NT as quantitative and passed. Maybe north is wondering what you are doing ;)

Anyway, don't really know what to do now (as long as it isn't pass).

What does 1♣ mean for you- how many clubs 2/3/4?
Is 1♠ showing 5 clubs,4 spades hand or just 4 spades with 3+ clubs?
Anyway you should bid 3rd suit forcing- 2♥ not 3NT.

Give partner 6 clubs, diamond void and AK hearts and Axxx spades and you have slam in clubs.

4nt was quantitative but you are allowed to respond Aces.

After that, 5♠ normally says we're missing 2 and asks you to bid 5nt but since your pard bid spades naturally, I'm betting he intends 5♥ to mean the same thing. 5nt instead by your pard asks for kings and guarantees all the aces in most partnerships.
