I'm sure that I would bid 2 as East over 1-Pass-1 (negative). Interesting that this didn't happen.

Assuming no competition:

1 (16+) - 1 (balanced or diamonds)
1N (17-19) - 2 (inv 4 and 5+ NF)
3 (values) - 3NT (spade help)

The south hand upgrades a bit with the knowledge of the big diamond fit. The 3 values call helps to reach 5 if north has short spades (say x Qxxx KJxxx xxx).

Good hand for my system.

1C--1D (strong, H or pts)
1NT--2C (17-18 denies 4H, 2C D transfer)
2H-- (supper accept) --- 3NT.

Meckwell-Lite:

1 - 1 (16; 0-7)
1N - 3 (17+ - 18; Puppet Stayman)
3N

Note that this system uses a 19-20 2N and 1N is 15-17- in third seat. At this vulnerability, better 17 counts routinely open 1C (same for better 16 balanced in first and second, playing a 14-16 range).

Pet two-way pass:

pass 1
1NT 2
2 pass

pass = 0-8 or 15+
1 = 0-8 or 15+
1NT = natural 15-17 (5M ok)
2 = 5-card non forcing stayman
2 = no 4 or 5M

I would not reach game.

This looks like a hand evaluation problem for any with 17/18 as their boundary point. If the South hand is 17 then

P - 1 = 15-17 nat/bal or 18+ any
... - 1 = most non-GF hands
1NT = 15-17 bal (or 4414)
... - 2 = Puppet Stayman
2 = no 5 card major

If 18 then

P - 1 = 15-17 nat/bal or 18+ any
... - 1 = most non-GF hands
1 = 18-20 any or 23+ bal
... - 1 = most hands
1NT = 18-20 bal
... - 2 = Puppet Stayman
2 = no 5 card major
... - 2 = 4 hearts (N could show 4M5+ instead but hand is a little weak for that)
2NT = min, <4 hearts
... - 3NT

I think I prefer the first auction since KJ tight is enough to offset the other positive features enough not to upgrade.
