A356745 a(n) is the first prime that starts a string of exactly n consecutive primes where the prime + the next prime + 1 is prime. 0

%N a(n) is the first prime that starts a string of exactly n consecutive primes where the prime + the next prime + 1 is prime.

%C a(n) is the first prime p(k) such that p(k+i)+p(k+i+1)+1 is prime for i from 0 to n-1, but not for i=-1 or n.

%e a(5) = 13 because 13+17+1 = 31, 17+19+1 = 37, 19+23+1 = 43, 23+29+1 = 53, and 29+31+1 = 61 are prime, but 11+13+1 = 25 and 31+37+1 = 69 are not, and 13 is the first prime that works.
