How do I make it so that when I press a key, it plays an animation?
What the title says. I can do the animation part, just don't know how to detect when the player presses a key. (Without having a tool equipped)

You should use userinputservice (as keydown is ripped)
Like this
local UserInputService = game:GetService('UserInputService')
function onInputBegan(input,gameProcessed)
-- Code
end
UserInputService.InputBegan:connect(onInputBegan)
Userinputservice has inputbegan and inputended wich both equal to keydown and keyup.
If you have any more questions, just ask :)

if you want to now the key you pressed you should use if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then User#20388 0 — 6y

theUserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService") -- this is what it is
theUserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, processedevent) -- this is the key-bind
if processedevent then return end -- this is so animations don't play while you are typing
if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Z then -- this is the key you would press, change Z to yours.
(animation stuff go here)
end
end)
