That is, there are 7 primes, counted with multiplicity, among the 15 pairwise sums of any 6 consecutive terms.
Conjectured to be a permutation of the nonnegative integers. The restriction to [1,oo) is then a permutation of the positive integers with the same property, but not the smallest one which is A329576 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 11, ...).
For n > 5, a(n) is the smallest number not used earlier such that the set a(n) + {a(n-5}, ..., a(n-1)} has the same number of primes as a(n-6) + {a(n-5), ..., a(n-1)}. Such a number always exists, by definition of the sequence. (If it would not exist for a given n, this means the term a(n-1) (or earlier) "was wrong and must be corrected", so to say. Of course this only refers to an incorrect computation.)

EXAMPLE

Using the smallest possible 5 initial terms a(0..4) = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4), we have a total of 6 primes among the pairwise sums, namely 0+2, 0+3, 1+2, 1+4, 2+3 and 3+4. To satisfy the definition for n = 0, the next term a(5) must give exactly one more prime when added to these 5 initial terms. The smallest number with this property is 6, but this choice of a(5) would make it impossible to find a suitable a(7): Indeed, for n = 1 we must consider the pairwise sums of (1, 2, 3, 4, a(5), a(6)). If we had (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, a(6)), the first 5 terms would give 5 prime sums 1+2, 1+4, 1+6, 2+3 and 3+4. Then a(6) should give two more prime sums, which is easily possible, either with even a(6) such that 1+a(6) and 3+a(6) are prime, or odd a(6) such that two among {2, 4, 6} + a(6) are prime. Thereafter, for n = 2, we drop the 1 and include a(7) instead, which must produce the same number of prime sums when added to {2, 3, 4, 6, a(6)} as was the case for 1. For even a(6) this was 4 (1+2, 1+4, 1+6 and 1+a(6)), which is impossible to achieve with a(7) > 1, since 2+x, 4+x and 6+x can't be all prime for x > 1. For odd a(6) it is 3 (1+2, 1+4 and 1+6), which is also impossible as well for odd a(7) (same reason as before) as for even a(7) (since only 3 and a(6) are odd and can give a prime sum).
This shows that we can't take a(5) equal to 6, and must consider the next larger possibility, which is a(5) = 8 (with prime sum 3+8 = 11, while 7 would give more than one, 0+7 and 4+7). Now we find that the smallest possible a(6) = 5 yields a solution and all subsequent terms can also be chosen greedily.
