The detection of the first circumbinary planet (CBP) was an exciting breakthrough in exoplanetary science, but the number of known CBPs remains small. Only 14 transiting CBPs have been discovered, making the study of their formation, evolution, and bulk properties difficult. Here, I present a framework for detecting transiting CBP candidates from TESS light curves of eclipsing binaries. I outline how the data is processed, including masking eclipses and detrending, as well as the procedure for detecting individual candidate transit events. In conclusion, I consider how potential candidates can be vetted and discuss follow-up observations necessary for their confirmation.
