Miraculous tools or Miraculous weapons are special tools that come with Miraculouses. Whenever a Miraculous holder transforms, they possess a tool specific to whichever Miraculous they have.[1]
History
For the sake of seeing and communicating with kwamis, a mage in ancient times created the Miraculouses, magic jewels. At the same time of making Miraculouses, the mage created tools to go with each Miraculous.
Appearance
Each tool is a different object, like Ladybug's yo-yo and Cat Noir's staff. There are many types of tools, including toys, musical instruments, and weapons. Usually, the tool is a size that can easily be carried by hand, and some tools can be worn when they aren't in use, such as Ladybug wrapping her yo-yo around her hips or Cat Noir having his staff attached to his back.
Abilities
Cat Noir fighting Darkblade's army with his staff.
Many of the tools are used as weapons, being handy for offense and defense. The tools are almost indestructible, it takes a powerful or magical force, like Simon Says' command card, to break them. Some of them are capable as means of transportation, like when Ladybug can swing from place to place with her yo-yo and Cat Noir can vault himself with his staff. Tools can also have technological features to them, including a phone, a GPS, and a search engine.
For some Miraculous holders, they need the tool to use their superpowers. For example, Ladybug tosses the yo-yo into the air whenever she utilizes Lucky Charm. Volpina and Rena Rouge played their flutes to create illusions.

When Théo Barbot and Chloé Bourgeois get akumatized into copies of Cat Noir and Ladybug respectively, they possess identical versions of the original superheroes' tools with the same features.
Lila Rossi's akumatization into a replica of a Fox Miraculous holder includes her possessing a copy of the flute, but it's unknown so far if her flute's powers are the same as the real flute's powers.
The real flute in "Sapotis" has the same abilities as Volpina's flute, but Rena Rouge's flute can only create one illusion opposed to Volpina's many illusions. After the flute has been used once, the Fox Miraculous starts to time out, but Volpina's Miraculous doesn't.
