Answers.Text: Having tested the site, I agree with the naive/simple part. It might give semi-decent results for simple tactics, but expectedly it won't help much with long term positional plans, etc.

Answers.Text: I would be thankful if you can recommend me some  books that have commented games. I mean books which explain the moves in detail. I googled it but I have not found anything useful yet as lot of books pop up.

Answers.Text: I stopped buying chess books a long time ago, so can't recommend anything recent. The ones I have are not in English, so might not be useful to you either. Anyway, live (or non-live) video analysis of games  is everywhere on the internet and if done by good players, at least as good as books. As I write this I listen to Anish Giri and Peter Svidler, two of the very best players, commenting on the WC match live on chess24 (I am not associated with that website). You can watch the same broadcast later on as well.

  I was thinking if you were the author of <https://decodechess.com>, and posted here for self-promotion. "decode" isn't a common terminology here. What you're asking match exactly to the name of the site.
  
  Ok. Please take a look at the site.
  I personally don't use it as I found the analysis too simple/too naive. Maybe you'd think otherwise.
