Observation: a(n) ending at 0, if 5 <= n <= 24 and possibly more.

Conjecture: for each term k > 1 in the sequence there exists prime p such that k/p is in the sequence.
From the first 35 terms only a(23) = 2827440 is not in A025487.
In the list of conjectured terms, if actual terms <= 10^16 are 97-smooth and have the following property: a(n+1) = a(n) + k*gcd(a(n), a(n-1), ..., a(n-20)) setting a(n) = 1 for n < 1 then those terms are actual terms.
The conjectured terms are 41-smooth and satisfy a(n+1) = a(n) + k*gcd(a(n), a(n-1), ..., a(n-13)). (End)

Equivalently, integers whose number of oblong divisors (A129308) sets a new record.
Corresponding records of number of oblong divisors are 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, ... (End)

EXAMPLE
a(4) = 12 is in the sequence because A129308(12) = 3 is larger than any earlier value in A129308. - Bernard Schott, Jul 30 2022
