please post the code using the preformatted text option. it is otherwise hard to read

from a quick look it looks like you have an ‘if’ condition that should really be a trigger.

You have a copy/paste error:

Conditions do not use platform or from.

action:
  - if:
      - condition: state
        entity_id: light.studs_front_desk_left
        state: 'on'
