Harry received the cloak in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, not the Chamber of Secrets.
It was given to him by Albus Dumbledore who had borrowed it from James Potter. The cloak was in Dumbledore's possession at the time of the Potter's death and so he returned it to Harry.

Answer: Dumbledore held the cloak - he was investigating it - when Harry Potter's parents died. Later he left it to Harry Potter.
Answer: It was a Potter family heirloom... Dumbledore just borrowed it -- we don't know if it could have helped when Voldemort attacked the Potters in 1981.
