You deal and open 1♣, LHO overcalls 1♠ and partner bids 2♥ forcing (RHO passes). What's your rebid?

In this auction 3N does not show a hand nearly this strong, or suggest a trick taking hand based on clubs to me. Slam is easily in the picture and I'm going to create a GF.
If a 2N bid by me were played as forcing then everything changes, but I don't think many people play this way.

But I also really, really doubt we have a slam here, so I'm just going to be pragamatic.

3NT is not forcing partner can pass and i don't need much to make 6♣.

How about 4♣ now? It shows an autonomous suit (and as I play it is RKC)

1♣ (1♠) 2♥
2♠ 2NT
3♣ 3♥
?
If I can bid 4♣ minorwood, that would be my choice. If I could bid 4NT regular BW, that would be okay too. If we're playing keycard it should be for hearts in this auction and I don't want to do that. I could go with a 4♦ cue but that suggests hearts as well. Or make a leap of faith and try 5NT. I'll end up going with 3♠ though. Hopefully partner will rebid 3NT and I can make a quant raise to 4NT.

3♠ should still be forcing, showing some values, denying ♥'s.
Partner should get an idea about my shape. Over his 3NT i will bid 5♣ and hope he gets the message.
