Tools
A tool helps you to do something you couldn't otherwise do, such as craft or repair an item, forge a document, or pick a lock. Your race, class, background, or feats give you proficiency with certain tools. Proficiency with a tool allows you to add your proficiency bonus to any ability check you make using that tool. Tool use is not tied to a single ability, since proficiency with a tool represents broader knowledge of its use. For example, the GM might ask you to make a Dexterity check to carve a fine detail with your woodcarver’s tools, or a Strength check to make something out of particularly hard wood.

Ability. This entry lists the ability to use when making an ability check with the tool.
Utilize. This entry lists things you can do with the tool when you take the Utilize action. You can do one of those things each time you take the action. This entry also provides the DC for the action.
Craft. This entry lists what, if anything, you can craft with the tool. For crafting rules, see “Crafting Nonmagical Items,” “Brewing Potions of Healing,” and “Scribing Spell Scrolls” later in “Equipment.”
Variants. This entry appears if the tool has variants, which are listed. Each requires a separate proficiency.
Tool Proficiency
If you have proficiency with a tool, add your Proficiency Bonus to any ability check you make that uses the tool. If you have proficiency in a skill that’s used with that check, you have Advantage on the check too.
Your features might give you proficiency with a tool. A monster has proficiency with any tool in its stat block.
