COMMENTS
This sequence can be represented as a binary tree. Each left hand child is produced as A050505(n), and each right hand child as A000959(1+n), when a parent contains n >= 1:

etc.
Because all lucky numbers are odd, it means that even terms can only occur in even positions (together with odd unlucky numbers, for each one of which there is a separate infinite cycle), while terms in odd positions are all odd.

FORMULA
a(0)=0; after which, a(2n) = A050505(a(n)), a(2n+1) = A000959(a(n)+1).
As a composition of other permutations. For all n >= 1:
a(n) = A257731(A246378(n)).
a(n) = A257733(A237126(n)).
a(n) = A257801(A257728(n)).
PROG
(Scheme, with memoizing definec-macro)
(definec (A257726 n) (cond ((zero? n) n) ((even? n) (A050505 (A257726 (/ n 2)))) (else (A000959 (+ 1 (A257726 (/ (- n 1) 2)))))))
CROSSREFS
Inverse: A257725.
Related or similar permutations: A237126, A246378, A257728, A257731, A257733, A257801.
Cf. also A183089 (another similar permutation, but with a slightly different definition, resulting the first differing term at n=9, where a(9) = 13, while A183089(9) = 21).
Cf. also A257735 - A257738.
Sequence in context: A125150 A265901 A257801 * A183089 A191544 A191438
