This is conjectured and designed to be a permutation of the nonnegative integers, therefore the offset is taken to be zero.
Restricted to positive indices, this is a sequence of positive integers having the same property, then conjectured to be a permutation of the positive integers. (The word "odd" can be omitted in this case.)
If the word "odd" is dropped from the original definition, the sequence starts (0, 1, 3, 6, 2, 7), and then continues from a(6) = 4 onward as the present sequence. This is again conjectured to be a permutation of the nonnegative integers, and a permutation of the positive integers when restricted to the domain [1..oo). The latter however no longer has the property of lexicographic minimality.
See the OEIS wiki page for further considerations about existence, surjectivity and variants. - M. F. Hasler, Nov 24 2019

Examples

			For the first two terms there is no restriction regarding primality, so a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1. (If only positive values and indices are considered, then a(1) = 1 and a(2) = 2.)
Then a(2) must be such that among { 0+1, 0+a(2), 1+a(2) } there is exactly one odd prime, and 2 works.
Then a(3) must be such that among { 1+2, 1+a(3), 2+a(3) } there is only one (odd) prime. Since 1+2 = 3, the other two sums must both yield a composite. This excludes 3, 4, 5 and 6 and the smallest possibility is a(3) = 7.
And so on.

Sort A328997, remove duplicates, then list the missing primes.
Since we know that the first 20000 terms of A329333 are distinct, in order to show that a prime p is missing from the sums of pairs of terms of A329333, we only need to check until the terms of A329333 exceed p.

Examples

			A329333 begins 0, 1, 2, 7, 3, 6, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 9, 12, 14, 15, 13, 18, 17, 19, 20, ...
so we see the primes 2, 3, 5, 13, 7, 11, 13, 13, ...  But we do not see 17, and once we have seen all the numbers below 17 in A329333, we know 17 will never appear as a sum of two terms.
