3♠ looking for 3NT or 5♣/♦
I don't like to double with a void in their suit.

I would consider this a Lebensohl situation, and proceed like after a direct 2♠ overcall

Scoring matters.
Similar Agreements regarding 2C. Did it at least promise inv. values?
I guess the answer to the Agreement question is No.
I Play X as T/O, I would make the T/O.
With Kind regards

3d
I have already promised a 4 card major and if it was spades
I would probably have a 3n or x available. This at least
establishes a game force and lets p know my hand is not good
enough to bid 3s asking for a spade stop for 3n (they will
know they need at least 2 stops). If p cannot bid 3n I will
proceed to 5c and let p decide where we should play. If
playing x as tox it is far too dangerous since there are many
hand where p has 4 reasonable spades where we have less than
zero chance to beat them with their 9 card trump suit.
