I've got an issue with my front brake where the lever gets progressively closer to the bar when braking over the course of a ride. It's been freshly bled and was rock solid at the beginning of the ride. Is it a busted seal/leaky piston? It's an Ultegra 8070 caliper.

Does it still feel firm or has it gone mushy?

If mushy, air is getting in somewhere, might have been hiding in the reservoir. If the brakes are getting squeaky then calliper could be dead.

If it’s firm but the bite point has changed it’s something mechanical.

All that @Howard said, and check your pads. I may go through a set in challenging conditions.
