+# Lock
+
+The `lock`/`unlock` commands can be used to lock and unlock a GitHub issue or pull request.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Lock
+
+To lock an issue or pull request, any rust-lang team member may enter the command:
+
+```text
+@rustbot lock
+```
+
+This will immediately lock the issue or PR.
+
+### Unlock
+
+To unlock an issue or pull request, any rust-lang team member may enter the command:
+
+```text
+@rustbot unlock
+```
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The triagebot Zulip `unlock` command can be used in case it's not possible
+> for the team member to post a command.
+
+## Configuration
+
+This feature is enabled on a repository by having a `[lock]` table in `triagebot.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[lock]
+```
+
+## Implementation
+
+See [`src/handlers/lock.rs`](https://github.com/rust-lang/triagebot/blob/HEAD/src/handlers/lock.rs) and
+[`parser/src/command/lock.rs`](https://github.com/rust-lang/triagebot/blob/HEAD/parser/src/command/lock.rs).
