HEX to RGB
Hex triplets → integer channels
Design tokens and chat snippets often arrive as #RRGGBB; graphics shaders and spreadsheet QA want separate R/G/B integers 0–255. This hop expands each pair of nibbles without touching gamma—still assuming straight sRGB.
Display P3 caveat
Hex alone cannot encode wide-gamut profiles; if marketing references P3 swatches, validate with calibrated hardware, not only numeric tuples. Round-trip through RGB to HEX after edits.
