arXiv:2610.14372v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dexterous robot hands can receive useful motion intent from teleoperation or learned policies, but successful execution also depends on contact decisions that these commands rarely specify. We introduce DexFLEX, a contact-aware foundation controller that turns upstream fingertip-motion drafts into contact-consistent joint commands. Instead of treating a draft as a trajectory to copy, DexFLEX treats it as evidence about intent: from the current tactile-proprioceptive state, it proposes feasible short-horizon motion chunks, predicts their contact
