Does the Rogue's Reliable Talent work for Thieves' tools, if the rogue is proficient in them? It would be my opinion that it would indeed work for tools and kits based on the PHB verbiage, but I am looking for affirmation of my understanding. I have cited the quotes below which make me believe they will.
PHB, pg. 96: When Reliable Talent is applicable-
Whenever you make an ability check that lets you add your proficiency bonus
PHB, pg. 154: Using Thieves' Tools-
Proficiency with these tools lets you add your proficiency bonus to any ability checks you make to disarm traps or open locks.

Your interpretation is correct
You already quote all the necessary rules.
- Using Thieves' Tools usually involves an ability check
- Proficiency in Thieves' Tools lets you add your proficiency bonus to the check
- Reliable Talent works on any check where you add proficiency
Therefore, Reliable Talent will work on a check that uses Thieves' Tools if you are proficient with them

@Boblawblah I appreciate you accepting the answer so fast but please keep in mind that it may be in your interest to wait a bit longer before doing so. It is usually better to wait a bit longer (24h for example) so as to give others the chance to also post a (perhaps better/more thorough) answer. Regardless, it's always up to you on when/which answer to accept. Also welcome to the site!
