不用记忆模块，直接传完整视频历史，让视觉语言动作模型高效长时决策。

Long-horizon manipulation is partially observable: the information needed to choose the next action may appear only in observations from minutes earlier. Existing memory mechanisms: retrieval banks, learned compressors, recurrent states must decide what to keep from the past before knowing what a future decision will require. This was motivated by the assumption that minute-scale history is too large to process directly, which modern VLM backbones no longer make true. In this work, we introduce SimpleMemVLA, a VLA without a dedicated memory module. It keeps the sampled history intact and passes it to the backbone in the timestamped video format the backbone was pretrained to process; the hidden states of a generated sub-task then form the only channel from history to a standard flow-matching action head. Since consecutive decisions share most of their history, prefilling the shared prefix during action execution keeps latency close to a single-frame VLA. SimpleMemVLA sets a new state of the art on four memory benchmarks without cost on general-purpose control. Holding the backbone and training setup fixed, it outperforms retrieval, compression and recurrent-state mechanisms by a wide margin, and causal interventions confirm that the policy genuinely reads its history.
