Clockify and Toggl have a browser extension that add buttons on specific websites. This makes it easy for users to start/stop projects on the fly based on the where the button is.
Example, gitlab-github buttons would automatically add the name of the issue to the timer.
They use API's to their servers to start/stop timers, something Timecop does not have.
However, it should be possible to connect to a Linux desktop client via Native messaging. I have not experimented with this so I can not be certain it would work.

The Toggl Extention uses Apache License 2.0. It means that it can used, replacing their API requests to Native messaging.
This is big suggestion, and I understand this. So there is no rush. Other people can add a '👍' or '👎' if they agree/disagree.
