Drill Press Foot Switch
Mills have a nice optional unit for tapping - auto-reverse on a set of
gears in the unit itself. It goes into jaws (or holder...) and the tap
into it's jaws.
Made just for taping.

You might need to think about this a bit more. Assuming you have a single phase motor, it will not reverse instantly. But if it is three phase , you just need the foot switch to swap two leads.

Right. But the motor still defaults to reverse rotation so all I would
need to do is step off of the switch, not toggle it.

But if you are using a single phase motor, it will not reverse until the centrifugal switch drops out.
