Cyclotomic synthetic spectra

We define an $\infty$-category $\mathrm{CycSyn}$ of $p$-typical cyclotomic synthetic spectra and prove that the motivic filtration on $\mathrm{THH}(R;\mathbf{Z}_p)$, defined by Bhatt, Morrow, and Scholze when $R$ is quasisyntomic and by Hahn, Raksit, and Wilson in the chromatically quasisyntomic case, naturally admits the structure of a $p$-typical cyclotomic synthetic spectrum. As a consequence, we obtain new bounds on the syntomic cohomology of connective chromatically quasisyntomic $\mathbf{E}_\infty$-ring spectra.
