Now this is new. I don't think Snape had any idea Harry was there, until the
very end when he saw the map. Are you saying he realized it before? Because
his capitulation and dismissal by Moody are not particularly graceful; nor
is it vital to the scene whether Snape knows he's there or not. The point
is, Harry was not caught, whether or not the whole castle knew he was
actually there. Enlighten me as to why this matters and when you think Snape
realized Harry was there.
