From Jianing Song, Sep 13 2022: (Start)
a(n) is also the number of irreducible factors in the factorization of the ideal (2) in Z[zeta_n], zeta_n = exp(2*Pi*i/n). Actually, if the n-th cyclotomic polynomial factors as Product_{i=1..a(n)} F_i(x) over GF(2), then the factorization of (2) in Z[zeta_m] is (p) = Product_{i=1..T(n,m)} (2,F_i(zeta_m)). See Page 47-48, Proposition 8.3 and Page 61-62, Proposition 10.3 of the Neukirch link for a proof; see also A327818.
As a result, 2 remains inert in Q(zeta_n) <=> a(n) = 1, which happens if and only if either n is odd, 2 is a primitive root modulo n, or n == 2 (mod 4), 2 is a primitive root modulo n/2.
Example 1: Phi_8(x) = x^4+1 == (x+1)^4 (mod 2), so in Z[zeta_8] = Z[i,sqrt(2)] we have (2) = (2,(zeta_8)+1)^4 = ((zeta_8)+1)^4. In fact we have 2 = -i*(3-2*sqrt(2)) * ((zeta_8)+1)^4).
Example 2: Phi_12(x) = x^4-x^2+1 == (x^2+x+1)^2 (mod 2), so in Z[zeta_12] = Z[i,sqrt(3)] we have (2) = (2,(zeta_12)^2+(zeta_12)+1)^2 = ((zeta_12)^2+(zeta_12)+1)^2. In fact we have 2 = (2-sqrt(3)) * (1-sqrt(-3))/2 * ((zeta_12)^2+(zeta_12)+1)^2. (End)
