The problem, obviously, that you don't want those options. Just get rid of all of them and the default values should be fine for what you want to do. My launchd.plist just looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>label</key>
<string>com.foo.MyGreatApp</string>
<key>MachServices</key>
<dict>
<key>com.foo.MyGreatApp.helper</key>
<true/>
</dict>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.foo.MyGreatApp.helper</string>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
