Not gaining weight? Eat more. It's that simple.

Also, eating "clean" is a myth. Read http://www.completehumanperformance.com/clean-eating/

Then by all means... stay the same size and keep making excuses.

I know how you feel bro but unfortunately you've gotta do it, I'm eating 3600 calories daily, but when I was 128lbs I was eating like 3k and couldn't gain any weight for 2 years. Now I'm up to 160 eating 3.6k a day, i know eating 100% clean didn't work for me I use iifym now, I don't eat candy or cokes but like raviolis, milk and burgers. So far I've gained a minimal amount of fat maybe just upped 1 or 2% after gaining 10lbs.

I tried bumping up to 3,100 cals but still doesn't do anything

so why not up to 3400 or 3700 ? is 3100 calories is limit of humanity ?

The problem is that you are trying to hit high calories with chicken and oatmeal etc. Eat fattier foods. Eat foods you actually enjoy. There's nothing wrong with ice cream, chocolate, burger, pizza, noodles, pasta, pancakes, cake, etc. If you are concerned about additives or poor quality ingredients in some commercial products than pick better brands/restaurants or make stuff at home.

It's the same for you as for anyone else trying to gain weight---eat more.
