How to set value later

How can I set a value imperatively for example in a reactive statement? This won’t work because svelte-forms expects a Field<T> from me. I just want to set the value.

const name = field('name', undefined);
const _form = form(name);

$: name.set($someValueFromExternal); // Doesn't work
$: $name = $someValueFromExternal; // Doesn't work
