COMMENTS
Similar to A181388, this occurs as binary encoding of a straight n-omino lying on the y-axis, when the grid points of the first quadrant (N x N, N={0,1,2,...}) are given the weight 2^k, with k=0, 1,2, 3,4,5, ... filled in by antidiagonals.
Numbers k such that the k-th composition in standard order (row k of A066099) is a reversed initial interval. - Gus Wiseman, Apr 02 2020

EXAMPLE
Label the cells of an infinite square matrix with 0,1,2,3,... along antidiagonals:
0 1 3 6 10 ...
2 4 7 ...
5 8 ...
9 ...
....
Now any subset of these cells can be represented by the sum of 2 raised to the power written in the given cells. In particular, the subset consisting of the first cell in the first 1, 2, 3, ... rows is represented by 2^0, 2^0+2^2, 2^0+2^2+2^5, ...
