/v1/comments/{id}
curl --request PATCH \
  --url http://localhost:3000/v1/comments/2489E9AD-2EE2-8E00-8EC9-32D5F69181C0 \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{ "text": "example" }'

The caller must be the comment’s author. Anyone else, including a server token, is 403. The new text is scanned the same way as a create. A bounce leaves the stored text unchanged.
