FORMULA
a(2) = 11427 since 11427^2 - 2 = 130576327 = 7^3 * 617^2 is a nonsquare powerful number, and k^2 - 2 is not a nonsquare powerful number for all k < 11427.
PROG
(PARI) is_a102834(n) = ispowerful(n) && !issquare(n) \\ after Charles R Greathouse IV in A102834
a(n) = for(k=1, oo, if(n%k!=0 && is_a102834(k^2-n), return(k))) \\ Felix Fröhlich, Jul 19 2019
