So I decided to do the (minimal) legwork involved to see who's actually working on the Omarchy main repo itself. At time of writing, there are 6,334 commits on the main branch between 509 contributors. Of the top 5 contributors, 2 are human and 3 are bots. The #1 contributor is DHH with 4,373 (69%). The #2 is ryanrhuges with 688 (11%). #3 and #4 are Claude and Codex with 513 (8.0%) and 51 (0.80%), respectively. Note the MASSIVE drop offs involved here. #5 is a bespoke omarchybot with 35 (0.55%). Everything else is small time committers who have summed up to only 709 (11%)[1] between 504 committers (mean 1.4 commits per committer).
It's safe to say that Omarchy is DHH.
[1]: I don't know if GitHub's contributor list can list multiple committers for the same commit (something I think git allows--I know it at least allows multiple authors on the same commit). If it does, this number might be higher, and I didn't individually sum up the remainder of the list. Given the massive drop offs, point still stands.

There are other repos on GitHub here that show he might have at least one further person working on it, but none of those repos are very large so I didn't dig further.
