I had the same auction with the clubs instead of diamonds and responded 5♦ to 4nt and alerted it as cue bid (it had something like xxx Axxx - KQxxxx)

Yeah I had almost the same the other day. Btw, I found when responder bids 4♣ instead of 4♦, you can get out in 4N after bidding a natural 4D. Not sure whether that would work with 4M here, too.

I was opener and I happened to be 2245, and the alerts said a major suit bid would be natural with 3 and 4NT would be keycard. So it was either that or 5♦, and not knowing this would happen...

Why is 4NT keycard and 4M natural anyway, I thought those had been fixed?
