%N a(n) = b_f(n) where f is the 3-periodic sequence [-1,1,5] (see comments).
%C Let u(1)=1 and u(n)=abs(u(n-1)-gcd(u(n-1),n+f(n)) where f(n) is a periodic sequence with period [f(1),f(2),...,f(beta)]. Then (b_f(k))_{k>=1} is the sequence of integers such that u(b_f(k))=0. We conjecture that for k large enough b_f(k)+1+f(i) is simultaneously prime for i=1,2,...,beta. Here f is a period 3 sequence with period [-1,1,5]. It appears [a(n),a(n)+2,a(n)+6] is a prime triple for n>=14 (a(n)>=2657).
