Have a look at:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/snippets/text-_002d-creating-text-spanners
explains how to modify any detail of a TextSpanner.
The TextSpanner line implements the line-interface:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/internals/line_002dinterface
gives you all the variants and parameters.
From what I see in your example score you will have 2 spanners in
parallel. It's important to know that there can be only one TextSpanner
per Voice at the same time. so if you're aiming for serveral spanners,
like ritardando and flt. consider defining separat voices per spanner
type (one voice for tempo-related spanners, one voice for
technique-related spanners).
Next head over to encapsulate different spanners in separate makros.

Here’s the code:
\once\overrideTextSpanner.bound-details.left.text = \markup{\boldRit.}
289 \time2/8
290
b32-.\p\startTextSpanrdes-.\ppc-.r\once\overrideTextSpanner.bound-detail.left.text
= "flt."e:256\mf\<^\markup{fltz.}\startTextSpan*(*ees:256d:256| %21

r}a:128\mf\stopTextSpanr\xNotedes\pp\xNotedes\xNoted!8->aes\harmonic\fermata\bar"|."\stopTextSpan|
%22
And it should look something like this:

Hello everybody,
I’m currently trying to write a section where I need a rit. line
[..]
LilyPond code example, please, that shows what you've tried, together
with an image that shows how it should look like.
