Action chunking improves temporal coherence in visuomotor imitation learning by jointly predicting sequences of future actions. However, many existing policies regenerate entire action chunks even when errors are localized, potentially replacing otherwise valid predictions. We introduce Contextual Masked Action Policy (CMAP), a visuomotor policy that refines continuous action chunks through history-conditioned local regeneration. Specifically, CMAP introduces a history-conditioned action tape that combines executed commands with masked future positions to produce coarse action predictions and per-step uncertainty scores. An uncertainty-guided span regeneration mechanism then selects a high-uncertainty contiguous span and reconstructs it using the executed history and retained future predictions as context. By jointly reconstructing neighboring actions, CMAP models local temporal dependencies while preserving all predictions outside the selected span. Extensive experiments on nine simulated and four real-world manipulation tasks demonstrate that CMAP achieves superior overall performance over several competitive baselines. Ablation studies validate the complementary contributions of its key components, while held-out trajectory analysis shows that local regeneration reduces prediction errors within selected spans.
