Henry, when i need to strengthen legs, but have clearance issue, I have used 90 degree metal brackets that Home Depot has near the gate hinges.
The do not sick out at all like gussets, and are very rigid.

LastspikemikePressed metal shelf brackets with the moulded in tubular reinforcing sections should work well. Pretty much no intrusion into the space. Add Quote
Not thin gauge shelf brackets. Those are not suitable for anything structural.
These are the 10 inch 1/8" thick steel angle brackets that are the correct thing to use. Two of them 90 degrees apart are good.
Ten inches might be overkill.
