Pretrained generative robot policies can produce effective behaviors across diverse environments, but deployment can lead to requirements and preferences that may not have been represented during training. Furthermore, at deployment, an operator, user, or application may assign these requirements and preferences a priority order that can vary across deployments. For example, embodiment-specific feasibility constraints may need to be satisfied first, while user-specific preferences guide behavior among the feasible options. We show that a frozen generative robot policy---based on either diffusion or flow matching---can be steered at inference time to respect such lexicographically ordered deployment objectives. To achieve this, we introduce two modifications to the sampler. First, we apply dynamic-barrier guidance to sampled trajectories, constraining lower-priority updates so that higher-priority costs do not increase (up to first order). Second, we select the executed sample using a cascade that successively filters candidate samples according to each priority level. The policy weights remain unchanged. On a navigation benchmark, we demonstrate that our method improves success, traversability, and preference compliance over the frozen policy, and achieves substantially better compliance than tuned weighted-sum baselines. The same method transfers to a flow-matching manipulation policy on LIBERO, where it improves compliance without reducing task success. A controlled manipulation study further shows that, in settings where a fixed weight can match the desired ordering, the dynamic barrier reaches comparable best performance over a substantially wider range of parameter settings.
