Large language model (LLM) embeddings have been increasingly adopted in sequential recommendation to encode static item attributes and alleviate the limitations of item ID embeddings under sparse interactions. However, these embeddings typically capture only static content similarity while neglecting sequential transitions, and since their adaptation quality relies on sparse per-item updates or global geometric calibration, existing methods still struggle to explicitly transfer preceding interaction contexts from frequent to long-tail items under unevenly distributed behavioral evidence, limiting recommendation effectiveness across the catalog. To address this challenge, we propose PACERec, an ID-free progressive adaptation framework that incorporates preceding interaction contexts into semantic representation adaptation by learning a shared velocity field from items with sufficient interactions via frequency-weighted flow matching. In this way, PACERec progressively guides static LLM embeddings toward collaborative behavioral targets while preserving original item semantics, overcoming sparse per-item updates to effectively generalize sequential transition patterns to long-tail items for both user modeling and candidate scoring. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets across three sequential backbones demonstrate the superiority of our method over competitive baselines in both overall and long-tail recommendation.
