Flow-based Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies are inherently stochastic: different noise seeds can produce action chunks of varying quality from the same observation. At test time, however, the policy typically commits to a single sample without an explicit estimate of its quality. In fine-grained manipulation, executing a suboptimal action can irreversibly disrupt task progress and lead to failure. To exploit policy stochasticity, we introduce a training-free two-axis trigger that uses two initial samples to measure within-chunk temporal variation and cross-sample variance, detecting the critical states. Once triggered, a JEPA-based latent world model ranks candidate action chunks by predicting action-conditioned future latent states and the corresponding changes in task progress. By operating in latent space, the verifier avoids pixel reconstruction and enables efficient and more accurate ranking. Across three real-world tasks, $\textit{i.e.,}$ pen insertion, pipetting, and apple placement), our method raises the average completion score from 50.8% to 65.5%, while adding 326 ms for sampling and verification per triggered decision on a single RTX 4090. Consistent gains are also observed in simulation, where the average success rate rises from 66.4% to 73.6% in the clean setting of RoboTwin 2.0, from 62.8% to 69.6% in its randomized setting, and from 96.9% to 97.6% on LIBERO.
