I answer myself, if it could help someone : I added an api service "set_main_counter" to my water meter yaml : 

api:
    services:
    - service: reset_main_counter
      then:
        - script.execute: reset_main_counter
    - service: reset_secondary_counter
      then:
        - script.execute: reset_secondary_counter
    - service: set_main_counter
      variables:
        my_count: int
      then:
        - globals.set:
            id: main_counter_pulses
            value: !lambda 'return my_count;'

after reflashing the esp32, the service is published to home assistant and can be called using developper tools
