If you really need to do this, please do
VelocityContext context = TurbinePull.getGlobalContext();
This gives you a context with the global tools. All other tools are
either Request or User related so it doesn't make sense to access
them.
In my application I treat pull tools strictly as what they are:
Part of the View, which are used to access information from my
application. My tools are only a thin layer (adapters) over my data
model. If I need to access the data model from outside the view, I go
directly to the model and don't use the tools.

If you need e.g. $link (which is the template link tool), you're much
better off by doing
TurbineURI tu = new TurbineURI();
... work on it ...
String uri = tu.getAbsoluteLink();
The tool in $link is simply a very thin interface layer over a
TemplateURI object. If you need a TemplateURI object in your
application, just use a TemplateURI (or its non-templated brother,
TurbineURI). That's the whole idea behind the new URI scheme. ;-)
You might want to look at the comment at the begining of TemplateLink. %-)
