1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving, through a user interface (UI) of an artificial-reality (AR) design tool, a selection of a configurable interface element to place the AR design tool and the UI into a configure phase to configure an AR effect;
receiving, through the UI of the AR design tool after the AR design tool and the UI are placed into the configure phase in response to selecting the configurable interface element, instructions to add a voice-command module to the AR effect;
configuring, while the AR design tool and the UI are placed into the configure phase, one or more parameters of the voice-command module to generate the AR effect based on one or more voice commands; and
generating the AR effect utilizing a particular voice command at runtime based on configured one or more parameters of the voice-command module.
