+### Manage issues and pull requests using the Derek bot
+
+If you want to help label, assign, close or reopen issues or pull requests
+without commit rights, ask a maintainer to add your Github handle to the 
+`.DEREK.yml` file. [Derek](https://github.com/alexellis/derek) is a bot that extends
+Github's user permissions to help non-committers to manage issues and pull requests simply by commenting.
+
+For example:
+
+* Labels
+
+```
+Derek add label: kind/question
+Derek remove label: status/claimed
+```
+
+* Assign work
+
+```
+Derek assign: username
+Derek unassign: me
+```
+
+* Manage issues and PRs
+
+```
+Derek close
+Derek reopen
+```
