Does it have to be a Photoshop Plugin?

Yes. It has to be photoshop plugin because I need to get exact color values that the color picker "second color readout" shows.
Because as you know Photoshop uses it's own color engine, the exact values can be taken only from Photoshop itself.

Ath

Oh, and what would the output file have to look like?
And be aware that the output file will be between 6 and ~32 times the size of the original image file, depending on the information and format. But that would be problematic an big files only, I'd expect.

The output would depend on the color picker values, the output needs to be color picker "second color readout".
That means text values separated by tab separator.

As You know Photoshop supports these color picker values:

Greyscale - K 65
RGB Color - RGB 184 34 40
RGB Web Color - Web B8 22 28
HSB Color - HSB 358 81 72
CMYK Color - CMYK 0 100 100 0
LAB Color - LAB 47 68 48

So for example the output of saved text file of should look like this for different color picker modes:
Valus separated by tab separator for easy importing to for example excel etc.

Greyscale
50
12
45
78

RGB Color
184 34 20
200 5 39
50 50 41
6 55 45
9 58 40


RGB Web Color
B8 22 28
ff 00 ff
ff ff ff
D6 22 28


HSB Color
358 81 42
180 20 80
160 22 72
120 50 52


CMYK Color
0 100 100 0
5 4 100 89
25 5 40 55
30 30 30 30


LAB Color
47 68 71
100 48 72
60 53 66
65 66 41

I have a working proof-of-concept script that will dump an image's per-pixel RGB values to a text file.  However, I've no clue how to write a Photoshop plugin (nor do I own the program).

You can download trial version of photoshop from adobe.

Outside solutions does not work. There is specialized commercial applications like but all export different color values than Photoshop shows. If we a talking about CMYK then there are huge problems because the exported values by third party outside applications get 1% K ink where there should be none etc.

BPC and rendering intent change color values too. So to get the same color values as photoshop, it needs to be exported from it.

tomos:
That's odd, that Photoshop has different colour values to other apps - who's at fault there?
And which colour value is *actually* correct?

I would like to explain that RGB color is just mathematical construct, that's why I need to go trough photoshop that applies Adobe RGB icc profile to it using Adobe CMM (color management engine) only then I get color numbers that means anything. Since most pre-press, designers etc. use adobe I need to extract color values that are matching. That means I must have some sort of plugin.
