The command you need can be found in the ImageMagick documentation at https://usage.imagemagick.org/color_basics/#separate:

Separating Channel Images

The easiest way separating out the individual color channels is to use the "-separate" operator to extract the current contents of each channel as a gray-scale image.

magick rose: -channel R -separate separate_red.gif
magick rose: -channel G -separate separate_green.gif
magick rose: -channel B -separate separate_blue.gif

Rose ==> Rose Red Rose Green Rose Blue

In these examples, the rose: parameter makes it use a small built-in image of a rose for the input. (Helpfully, you can see the redness of the rose shows up as lighter in the red channel.)
