Native speaker’s answer

Rebecca

The informal expression "we've/I've/she's/he's got you covered" means that everything has been taken care of; the task or thing that is needed has been done. Thus, the speaker has used this expression to state that Ice Bear has already taken care of getting him a fork. Ex: Don't take out your wallet! I've got this meal covered. Ex: You don't need to bring any food. We've got you covered.
