Please try this out:

[https://github.com/mdoggydog/DiscourseSsoConsumer](https://github.com/mdoggydog/DiscourseSsoConsumer)

It operates as a plugin for the PluggableAuth extension. I haven’t put this on any public-facing sites yet, and it sorely lacks unit/etc tests, but it does seem to work so far. It should not require any tech skills beyond those needed for installing/configuring any other MediaWiki extension.
