None of the source 1 games (HL2, ep1, ep2, css, tf2, ...) allow me to input console commands in -tools mode.
In the game library select Half-Life 2 for example, open up the properties, set launch options, type "-tools" (without quotes) in the field. Launch Half-Life 2. In the bottom left is the console where you can input commands to load a map for example. However entering a console command is not possible since it doesn't register the command, as if enter doesn't register in the console while in -tools mode.
