Try the following steps:

1) Open project.json file and Remove all Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools references from dependencies and tools sections.

2) Close Package Manager Console (PMC) and restart Visual Studio

3) Add under dependencies section:

 "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools": {
  "version": "1.0.0-preview2-final",
  "type": "build"
 }

4) Add under tools section

"Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools": "1.0.0-preview2-final"

5) Restart again Visual Studio 2015

6) Open the PMC and type

Add-Migration $Your_First_Migration_Name$

This happen because the PMC recognize the tools when Visual Studio is starting.
