Diffusion models and flow matching have become a cornerstone of robotic imitation learning, yet they suffer from a structural inefficiency where inference is often bound to a fixed integration schedule that is agnostic to state complexity. This paradigm forces the policy to expend the same computational budget on trivial motions as it does on complex tasks. We introduce Generative Control as Optimization (GeCO), a time-unconditional framework that transforms action synthesis from trajectory integration into iterative optimization. GeCO learns a stationary velocity field in the action-sequence space where expert behaviors form stable attractors. Consequently, test-time inference becomes an adaptive process that allocates computation based on convergence--exiting early for simple states while refining longer for difficult ones. Furthermore, this stationary geometry yields an intrinsic, training-free safety signal, as the field norm at the optimized action serves as a robust out-of-distribution (OOD) detector, remaining low for in-distribution states while significantly increasing for anomalies. We validate GeCO on standard simulation benchmarks and demonstrate seamless scaling to pi0-series Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. As a plug-and-play replacement for standard flow-matching heads, GeCO improves success rates and efficiency with an optimization-native mechanism for safe deployment.
