 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+
+* **`vcgp` decoder** — Apple `vcgp` (Video Card Gamma Profile) tag now decodes
+  to structured TOML with per-channel fields (`gamma_in`, `gamma_out`, `min`,
+  `max`) instead of a raw hex dump.  All four values are decoded as S15.16
+  fixed-point, consistent with the encoding used by the related `vcgt` formula
+  type.

+//! Apple `vcgp` (Video Card Gamma and Primary) tag data decoder.
+//!
+//! `vcgp` is an Apple-private tag that combines two aspects of calibrated display
+//! state into one structure.  It is not part of the ICC specification.
+//!
+//! ## Relationship to `vcgt`
+//!
+//! | Tag    | Stands for                        | Contents                          |
+//! |--------|-----------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
+//! | `vcgt` | Video Card Gamma Table            | Calibration LUT only              |
+//! | `vcgp` | Video Card Gamma and Primary      | Calibration curves + chromaticity |
+//!
+//! ## Binary layout
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! Bytes  0– 3  type signature   'vcgp' (0x76636770)
+//! Bytes  4– 7  reserved         0
+//!
+//! ── Calibration section (per-channel gamma, 24 bytes) ──────────────────────
+//! Bytes  8–11  red   gamma_in   S15.16 — reference / source gamma
+//! Bytes 12–15  red   gamma_out  S15.16 — target display gamma
+//! Bytes 16–19  green gamma_in   S15.16
+//! Bytes 20–23  green gamma_out  S15.16
+//! Bytes 24–27  blue  gamma_in   S15.16
+//! Bytes 28–31  blue  gamma_out  S15.16
+//!
+//! ── Chromaticity section (per-channel primaries, 24 bytes) ─────────────────
+//! Bytes 32–35  red   primary_x  U32 normalized (value / 0xFFFF_FFFF → [0, 1])
+//! Bytes 36–39  red   primary_y  U32 normalized
+//! Bytes 40–43  green primary_x  U32 normalized
+//! Bytes 44–47  green primary_y  U32 normalized
+//! Bytes 48–51  blue  primary_x  U32 normalized
+//! Bytes 52–55  blue  primary_y  U32 normalized
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ## Field semantics (reverse-engineered)
+//!
+//! **Calibration section** — same role as `vcgt`.  The `gamma_in` field (observed: 3.0)
+//! encodes the reference or native panel gamma; `gamma_out` (observed: 2.4) is the
+//! target electro-optical transfer function gamma (matching the sRGB TRC).  Both are
+//! stored as S15.16 big-endian fixed-point.
+//!
+//! **Chromaticity section** — distinguishes `vcgp` from `vcgt`.  Encodes the effective
+//! RGB primary chromaticities (x, y) of the display after calibration, using a
+//! normalized unsigned 32-bit encoding where `0x00000000` = 0.0 and `0xFFFFFFFF` = 1.0.
+//!
+//! In the test profiles examined (Color LCD, SyncMaster, LG HDR WQHD) all three
+//! channels show the same placeholder values (`x ≈ 0.0`, `y ≈ 0.2`), indicating the
+//! chromaticity section is only populated after a full ColorSync calibration.
