This sounds like a perfect thing for Beta Experiments, as Pau mentioned.
The page he linked to talks about how developers can package their code to
add to BE framework here is a bit more about what BE is and why it exists.
Mark Holmquist is the developer on the feature I'm sure he can help with
any issues, he's also working on documentation for the feature as well.

I'm not sure if it fits on a 3-month period, but I think that some aspects
may help to it:
- I agree that interlanguage links are a sensitive area. But this
concern can be solved by adding the feature by means of
BetaFeatures<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:BetaFeatures>es>,
so that our community members can opt-in to test it and see how it works in
practice for all kinds of articles.
- From the technical side, the most complex pieces are already
available (e.g., getting usual languages based on geo-ip and previous
selections, language selection UI) which would help to speed the
development.

Maybe a candidate for

fwiw: next month the current Google Summer of Code / Outreach Program
for Women rounds will be over and we will refresh that page for the new
OPW round starting in January.
I'm not the PM in the room, but I highly doubt it fits the
3-months-project frame, especially given how impactful and sensitive an
area of the skin(s) interwikis are.
