A person with an inflated opinion of and genuine belief in his skill/prowess/intelligence who takes every opportunity to remind others of it, regardless of the skill he actually possesses. A tool may or may not actually be smart, and may also be disarmingly superficially pleasant; these attributes are irrelevant.

Tool: Hi! Nice to see you.
Unfortunate Acquaintance: Hey, you too. How's work going?
Tool: Pretty good. My team isn't quite as up to speed as I am, but I've been taking time out of my busy day to lend help and guidance to those less gifted than I. I've been pulling the whole weight of the project so far. It's a good thing this is my area of expertise.
Unfortunate Acquaintance: I think I'm allergic to you.

Peter Keating from The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand is the original tool.
Someone who doesn't think for themselves, who's opinions are only that of whom the tool seeks approval from. A tool would never stand up to a crowd and speak of disapproval even if it was the just thing to do.
