Long-horizon robot manipulation requires a robot to remember task-relevant information beyond its short observation window. Existing memory-augmented policies typically retrieve relevant information from history and reason over it at execution time, placing a heavy reasoning burden on the high-level model. To address this challenge, we propose PAL (\textbf{P}lan first, \textbf{A}ct \textbf{L}ater), a hierarchical memory framework for vision-language robot manipulation. It maintains a short-term visual buffer, a semantic-event memory, and an executable \texttt{subtask\_list}. A high-level vision-language model (VLM) converts streaming visual observations into the \texttt{subtask\_list}. At execution time, the VLM selects the currently relevant subtask from the \texttt{subtask\_list} and passes it to a low-level vision-language-action (VLA) policy. To teach the model what to write to memory and when to update it, we introduce a two-stage data generation procedure that first expands sparse update supervision and then uses self-labeling with task-grounded verification to generate training data that better match the state distribution encountered during execution. We evaluate our approach on memory-dependent benchmarks and real-world manipulation tasks. On RoboMME, PAL achieves a \textbf{56.05\%} success rate, outperforming the strongest baseline, FrameSamp-Modul, at 44.51\%. In real-world experiments across four manipulation tasks, \pal{} reaches \textbf{60.83\%} overall success, surpassing MemER (45.00\%) and FrameSamp-Modul (28.33\%). These results show that proactively writing future-relevant subtasks into hierarchical memory improves long-horizon visual reasoning and robot control.
