Proxy storage slot is invalid

Error message

Proxy storage slot is invalid

What it means

A proxy contract entry in the deployment manifest has a storage_slot string that does not parse as a valid B256 value; the EIP-1967/Zephyr storage slot used to locate the implementation cannot be interpreted, so manifest verification fails.
