As the cloak is a True Invisibility cloak, immune to charms and spells, and according to legend invisible to even Death, how did Mad-Eye detect Harry Potter under the cloak? How Nagini and Mrs. Norris were able to sense Harry were through other senses, such as smell and warmth, but not visually.
We also see that in Deathly Hallows, Death Eaters try to summon the cloak off Harry but it doesn't work because that was cast at Harry. On the other hand, Moody's eye, Marauder's map, etc are designed to look through objects and enchantments, which means that they could see through the cloak. Hence the cloak can't be used to hide from such things.
The Invisibility Cloak of the Deathly Hallows is supposed to be unlike other cloaks, which can be detected through alternative means. But, in Goblet of Fire, Barty Crouch - disguised as Mad-Eye Moody - steals Polyjuice ingredients and sees Harry while he's wearing the cloak.

The eye may have just seen the magical power emanating from the cloak and not actually seeing through it. We see Dumbledore do something similar in the cave ...

Jun 19, 2022 · Moody dismisses Snape, causing Snape to bridle. Moody then spots the Marauder's Map on the floor; Snape immediately recognizes it. Harry, under his Invisibility Cloak, gesticulates madly to Moody that it is his, and Moody summons the map from Snape's fingers. Snape, furious, probes the air searching for Harry hiding under his cloak.
