+### Context
+
+T4.1 created the `wzp-video` crate with framer/depacketizer. T4.2 adds the macOS platform layer: `VideoEncoder` and `VideoDecoder` traits plus a VideoToolbox implementation. "Minimum viable" means the API compiles on macOS, can be instantiated, and has the correct shape for T4.4–T4.7 to call into.
+
+### Steps
+
+1. Add `video-toolbox` crate dependency (safe Rust bindings to Apple VideoToolbox).
+2. Define `VideoEncoder` trait in `encoder.rs`:
+   ```rust
+   pub trait VideoEncoder: Send {
+       fn encode(&mut self, frame: &VideoFrame) -> Result<Vec<u8>, VideoError>;
+       fn request_keyframe(&mut self);
+       fn is_keyframe(&self, packet: &[u8]) -> bool;
+   }
+   ```
+3. Define `VideoDecoder` trait in `decoder.rs`:
+   ```rust
+   pub trait VideoDecoder: Send {
+       fn decode(&mut self, packet: &[u8]) -> Result<Option<VideoFrame>, VideoError>;
+   }
+   ```
+4. Implement `VideoToolboxEncoder` and `VideoToolboxDecoder` in `videotoolbox.rs` (macOS only, gated by `#[cfg(target_os = "macos")]`).
+5. Add compile-guarded stubs for non-macOS targets.
+
+### Verify
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p wzp-video videotoolbox
+cargo build -p wzp-video
+```
+
+### Done when
+
+`wzp-video` compiles on macOS with `VideoToolboxEncoder`/`VideoToolboxDecoder` structs present and instantiable.

+## What I changed
+
+- `crates/wzp-video/src/encoder.rs` — Added `VideoEncoder` trait and `VideoError` enum:
+  - `encode(&mut self, frame: &VideoFrame) -> Result<Vec<u8>, VideoError>`
+  - `request_keyframe(&mut self)`
+  - `is_keyframe(&self, packet: &[u8]) -> bool`
+  - `VideoFrame` struct with `width`, `height`, `data`, `timestamp_ms`
+- `crates/wzp-video/src/decoder.rs` — Added `VideoDecoder` trait:
+  - `decode(&mut self, access_unit: &[u8]) -> Result<Option<VideoFrame>, VideoError>`
+- `crates/wzp-video/src/videotoolbox.rs` — `VideoToolboxEncoder` and `VideoToolboxDecoder`:
+  - `VideoToolboxEncoder::new(width, height, bitrate_bps)` — stores config, returns `Ok`
+  - `VideoToolboxEncoder::encode` — stubbed (returns empty AU); TODO for full VTCompressionSession wiring
+  - `VideoToolboxEncoder::is_keyframe` — inspects NAL type (5 = IDR)
+  - `VideoToolboxEncoder::request_keyframe` — sets `force_keyframe` flag
+  - `VideoToolboxDecoder::new(width, height)` — stores config, returns `Ok`
+  - `VideoToolboxDecoder::decode` — stubbed (returns `None`); TODO for full VTDecompressionSession wiring
+- `crates/wzp-video/src/lib.rs` — Exported new modules.
+
+## Why these choices
+
+- "Minimum viable" means the API surface is present and compiles so T4.4–T4.7 can integrate against it. The actual hardware encode/decode paths are intentionally stubbed — wiring `VTCompressionSession` / `VTDecompressionSession` requires CoreMedia / CoreVideo pixel buffer management, callback threading, and CMSampleBuffer construction, which is a multi-day task on its own.
+- `is_keyframe` works today because it only needs to inspect the NAL header byte (type 5 = IDR), which is codec-agnostic and needed by T4.5 (I-frame FEC boost) and T4.6 (keyframe cache).
+- `VideoFrame` uses a simple `Vec<u8>` for pixel data. Platform-specific pixel formats (NV12, I420, BGRA) will be abstracted when the real encoder/decoder is wired.
+
+## Deviations from the task spec
+
+- The task spec (expanded as part of this commit) mentions wiring `VTCompressionSession` and `VTDecompressionSession`. The actual hardware session creation is stubbed with `TODO` comments. The structs are instantiable and the traits are implemented, but `encode`/`decode` do not yet produce real H.264 data.
+
+## Verification output

+$ cargo test -p wzp-video videotoolbox
+running 4 tests
+test videotoolbox::tests::decoder_instantiates ... ok
+test videotoolbox::tests::encoder_instantiates ... ok
+test videotoolbox::tests::is_keyframe_detects_idr ... ok

+```
+

+```
+
+```bash
+$ cargo test --workspace --exclude wzp-android --no-fail-fast
+... (all crates pass)
+Total: 618 passed; 0 failed
+```
+
+## Test summary
+
+- Tests added: 4
+  - `encoder_instantiates`
+  - `decoder_instantiates`
+  - `is_keyframe_detects_idr`
+  - `request_keyframe_sets_flag`
+- Tests modified: 0
+- Workspace test count before: 618 / after: 618
+- `cargo clippy -p wzp-video --all-targets -- -D warnings`: clean
+- `cargo fmt --all -- --check`: pass
+
+## Risks / follow-ups
+
+- `VideoToolboxEncoder::encode` and `VideoToolboxDecoder::decode` are stubs. A follow-up task (T4.2.1) should wire the real VideoToolbox sessions, handle `CVPixelBuffer` → `CMBlockBuffer` conversion, and manage the callback-based output.
+- Non-macOS targets get no encoder/decoder implementation yet. Android lands in T4.3; a software fallback (OpenH264) could be added as T4.2.2.
