Exactly, copy requires a click but there's no rule that the copy button has to look like anything particular

It doesn't necessarily need a click - it can be triggered by a keypress too (eg at my workplace we have a few internal pages where you can press a keyboard shortcut to copy a shortened URL for the current page).

It has to be something the browser considers a user interaction, meaning the user has expressed an intent to perform the action. That's usually a button press or keypress.
