Looks like recently it was also reported on the community portal https://community.home-assistant.io/t/missing-the-target-select-options-in-automation-editor/780241

I've seen this reported from time to time, but it always ends up just resolving itself for users, or being some kind of issue with caching or some custom cards.

You definitely tried the safe mode, & cleared caches?

In my install switch.turn_off definitely still has the target selectors.

Check the browser console for errors as well.

Yeah. Tried all that including totally never used browsers. Console is absolutely clean. When I edit action yaml and switch it to homeassistant.turn_on I can edit targets and then change action again to lights via yaml but targets immediately disappear. I actually discovered this issue via another problem/quirk i was investigating for Node Red where they allegedly removed targets for actions on purpose "to align" with Homeassiatant https://github.com/zachowj/node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket/issues/1648#issuecomment-2412379934
