4c was explained (moused over before bid) as cue bid, 5+D, 21-HCP, biddable S, 8+ (I presume 8421 points in clubs).

Difficult to imagine why N passed with spades apparently agreed...

If, as I suspect, cue bids are a recent innovation here for GIB robots (replacing help suit slam tries?)has the rest of the code been adjusted accordingly?

GIB has always used both cue bids and slam tries, it depends on the auction.

Please post the hand.

Sorry, did compose hand diagram but failed to insert it.

The same thing appears to have happened to the other player who bid the same way. ACBL Robot Duplicate #7575 Board 1

I'm investigating; it looks like the bidding database is just missing bids for this sequence.

Instead of making the bidding diagram by hand, you can simply export the hand to a handviewer link from Hands & Results, and paste that into your post.
