Perfect Question, It grabbed me and gave me pause to think! Improvisation could be one note but does not have to be….adding in harmonize notes add lovely sonic texture. I use a rake technique across 4ish strings muted, also providing texture. Those are examples of “What you do is up to you” and “If it sounds good it is good”. Specifically what happens is the rhythm of the chordal structure is maintained for 4,8,16 bars (whatever is agreed between the players) or a backing track, the Improviser then adds a melodic contribution over the chordal structure.
