Gnomish Repair Toolbelts first debuted at Ebon Gate 2017 in Chisel, Peen and Chamfer, Esq. These can be used to damage or repair certain limited items.
Analyze
You analyze your brown leather toolbelt and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
Looking over the toolbelt and inspecting its finer details, you realize that it will always need to be "a/n (whatever)/(whatever)/toolbelt". The item's article and adjective CAN be changed, but "toolbelt" is the only valid noun.
This is a Gnomish Repair Toolbelt, which means it is scripted to interact both with run-of-the-mill, generic items and with items which have "damaged" text strings stored in them. This toolbelt provides standard messaging when working on generic items, and specific messaging when working on items which are part of the Gnomish Repair System. Items can be set up with "damaged" text strings so that they can interact with the Gnomish Repair System without being scripted. IF SCRIPTED, such items will state in their analysis text that they are part of the system.
If you were to play with the toolbelt, then you'd find that you can analyze, wear, remove, clean, pinch, poke, pull, and twist it.
Clean, pinch, poke, and pull provide standard interactions for generic items. G.R.S items need to be "damaged" in order for the toolbelt to interact with them. TWIST will set a G.R.S. item's long description to one of its four damaged descriptions. When a G.R.S. item is damaged, the same verbs will provide specific messaging as the item is "repaired."
NOTE: This toolbelt currently supports interaction with a limited variety of generic items. These include: shields, goggles, crossbows (mechanical and otherwise), longbows, composite bows, short bows, runestaffs, swords, and axes.

PULL
(axe)
|
Unwrapping an oiled whetstone that you've retrieved from your toolbelt's pouch, you pull the <axe>'s blade deliberately across the stone. Repeated, even strokes cover the edge of the axehead from top to bottom. Eventually, you hold the edge at eye level, end-on, and sight along it. The edge is a single black line. You're done. You rewrap the whetstone and put it away.

PULL
(shield)
|

(crossbow)

Then, with a planishing hammer from your toolbelt, you adjust the arc of each leaf to renew its tensile strength. The whole thing goes back together in a trice, and you finish up by giving it a good rubdown with your chamois.
